Rant HN: Can we just agree on showing HTML without requiring JavaScript?
by damir on Hacker News.
I’m browsing with JS and cookies disabled for speed and safety. Lately, more and more simple and plain blogs require JS to show any text on website. Can we just agree on letting basic html do it’s thing? Why insist on JS to be able to show simple text on webpage? For example:
