I have been browsing the web without Javascript enabled since 2006. The worst is that once in a while you will click on a link to read some text, but arrive at a completely blank page. Many times this can be solved by disabling CSS for that page or using the Google cache, but it's still annoying.
I my view requiring Javascript just to display text or pictures is completely brain-dead, web "designers" that think this is a good idea should probably no be allowed to design anything. It also makes it hard for disabled people that rely on accessibility tools to use the web.
I don't expect "web apps" like a video player to work without Javascript, but basic things like reading text, viewing pictures or clicking on links should never depend on it.
- rsync 10y agoI use ublock origin with chrome. Do I understand correctly that the simple tool to block javascript (noscript) is not available on chrome ? I'd like to disable javascript but the non-noscript recipes seem very complex ...

- navs 10y agoChrome allows you to enable/disable javascript on a per domain basis. It's not an extension or very flexible but I've found it useful for most situations e.g whitelisting js for my bank website.
