What does the internet look like without JavaScript? #shorts

You can use the internet without JavaScript! But it depends on how you surf the web. In this video, we looked at the websites that can work without JavaScript—and the ones that simply turn into useless blank pages.

Yes, it technically works, but honestly, you should try it yourself and see how broken everything gets. Modern web devs do some of the most insane things, like a tiny landing page needing a giant React JS bundle, random menus using hacky JS instead of modern CSS, those "continue reading" buttons on news sites, addictive infinite scroll, and more awful things.

If not for all that silliness, I'd bet the entire web could get by without any JS at all, but sadly, we live in a world where software efficiency is halved every 18 months, so of course the web browser and the websites it runs must suck out all life out of your PC!

Pro Tip, if you use an ad blocker, you can bypass the think that disables the site until you disable your ad blocker, by getting rid of JavaScript, and if a news site has a pay wall, you can bypass that by disabling JavaScript too

There was a time where you’d be considered a shit developer if your website didn’t work without JavaScript. Those days flew by fast.

My school had Java script disabled, it would make searching for stuff miserable

My site deliberately has no (very little) JS intentionally so people without JS (or just have bad computers) can still use my site perfectly fine. I pride myself in making it as static as possible.

Using Brave, i have scripts off by default and then just turn back on on the sites i allow by just two click, so its not even a bother. And its a great protection against popup sites or such.

1-500 disabled javascript and doesnt know to turn it back on

JavaScript fingerprinting makes sure sites can track you no matter what you do and 40% of pages use it. Ad companies have a full index of what things you do online at 3am

Watching this video just made me realize that disabling JS encourages healthier surfing behavior by disabling the option to scroll through any feeds by default.

Technically, a webpage that doesn't work without JavaScript is broken.

YouTube is broken on purpose. It does not use well-formed HTML that conforms to W3C specifications. They used that to force Microsoft to abandon their web rendering engine and use Google's fork of Apple's fork of KDE's rendering engine instead.

JavaScript was developed at Netscape in 1995 because web browsers didn't have any backdoors yet. They also invented cookies.

Html is used to present words and have links and urls(inclduing images), css allows you to organize and customize how the website should look. So it's easy to make a functional simple website will just html and css

React is like 40% of the internet if they don’t have ssr you ain’t seeing shit

[bettercalldelta]

I wish people stopped doing unnecessary flashy animations for simple pages, which requires a bunch of javascript

[phantomlordyt]

People in 2040 wondering about using internet without internet 💀
