I was thinking about a Twitter clone where your account goes through an approval process where you provide a short essay and your Hacker News username. Client has no tracking, and uses no JavaScript.

Lemmy has a few like that. But it uses Javascript, heavily. (Or is it wasm? I never looked.)
I still think someone should make a job application for FE developers that doesn’t work and you have to edit the page source to submit your resume.

Put a comment in the source to say you did it on purpose so you don’t scare them off immediately.

This is the rough social media equivalent of Mensa - not that that's necessarily a bad thing.
