If you had to estimate percentage of the web could exist without losing functionality without using JavaScript?

    Just fyi the entire browsing and checkout process of Amazon.com works fine without JavaScript, discovering that radicalized me against so called web apps. it just takes actually reading the html spec and maintaining state in the querystring or via session cookie. Latency can be lower than the monstrosities people build with react in the right circumstances.

      My phones have had JavaScript off by default for years. I'm amazed by how many sites work fine and are pleasurable to use.

      I only know of JavaScript / Spectre combo are there tales of other evils lurking in the great wild?
