    I respect your choices, but I am afraid modern web is mostly JavaScript. Can you actually browse anything with noscript today?

      Absolutely. The vast majority of my sites do just fine when whitelisting only the primary domain. I consider it an essential add-on myself.

      Lemmy is one of the few that needs a little babysitting, and it's only for the purpose OP stated.

        So, I am one of those old school types who mains with Firefox and Noscript. And also a filthy casual that just goes on lemmy.world. But half the images are broken because I'm expected to allow scripts on like 30+ sites to see most of the posts. I'm literally expected to allow /all/ the scripts from a domain just so I can see a dang picture behind the thumbnail. That's the entirety of the scripting needed. That seems ridiculous. Is there, I don't know, a server/way that makes it so I don't have to blanket allow all these scripts? To put it in meme form (not sure I'm doing it right, never seen the show): "It's an image of a banana Michael, what should it take, one Raspberry Pi running Docker?"

        Use a native app like a mobile client or Blorp if you're on Mac?

          I'm on lemmy.ml, it uses JS but it doesn't appear to load any from other domains. It serves images through a local proxy.

            I use the https://vger.app/ app / front end on mobile AND desktop and as far as I can tell it tunnels the images through their servers, so this is as minimal as you can get in regards to extra requests.

              I think the old Lemmy alternative frontend supports no JS. But I'm not sure whether the dev is still actively maintaining it: https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym

                        Yes.

                        PieFed uses very minimal javascript (it 95% works with JS entirely disabled) and you can access all the same communities and posts.

                        Try it at https://piefed.social or any of these other instances - https://join.piefed.social/try

                        Just curious, what's the 5% that doesn't work with JS disabled?

                          Voting, lol. Kinda important.

                          Dropdown menus. They're not really needed but life sucks without them.

                          Can't manually switch between dark and light mode (only automatically based on browser settings).

                          There's probably more but I haven't seriously tried to use PieFed for long without JS. Fundamentally it's built HTML and CSS first, with sprinkles of JS added on for funsies rather than the modern way of being all about JS.

                                    I use the https://vger.app/ app / front end on mobile AND desktop and as far as I can tell it tunnels the images through their servers, so this is as minimal as you can get in regards to extra requests.

                                        You don't need JS at all if you get a bit creative with the CSS.
