Is there a Lemmy server/way that doesn't require allowing javascript of a million other servers?

[ashtear@lemm.ee]

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.

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

[solrize@lemmy.ml]

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.

[mnmalst@lemmy.zip]

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.

Look for a desktop app.

Good to know...
Is it a pleasant experience?

[shimitar@downonthestreet.eu]

Yes, I did

[trinsec@piefed.social]

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

[rimu@piefed.social]

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 don't think any exist

Yesterday:

<nav script="dropdown.js" style="dropdown.css">
  <button onclick="toggleDropdown()">Menu</button>
</nav>

Today:

// index.js
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import './global.css';
import App from './App';

ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('root')).render(<App />);

// App.jsx
import Dropdown from './components/Dropdown';
import './App.css';

export default function App() {
  return (
    <main>
      <Dropdown />
      <p>Hello, world!</p>
    </main>
  );
}

// components/Dropdown.jsx
import { useState } from 'react';
import styles from './Dropdown.module.css';
import ArrowIcon from '../assets/icons/ArrowIcon.jsx';

export default function Dropdown() {
  const [open, setOpen] = useState(false);
  return (
   <div className={styles.dropdown}>
      <button onClick={() => setOpen(!open)}>Menu <ArrowIcon /></button>
      {open && (
        <ul>
          <li>Option 1</li>
          <li>Option 2</li>
        </ul>
      )}
    </div>
  );
}

Unfortunately with Lemmy 1.0 MLMYM (the software used to provide this UI) will have to be shutdown, unless the MLMYM dev re-appears or someone forks and maintains it.

[quazaromega@lemy.lol]

There is Interstellar!

[bdonvr@thelemmy.club]

Some instances host this themselves too.

Blorp has a desktop app.

[lostxor@fedia.io]

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

[omegalemmy@discuss.online]

Is it electron? I can't seem to find it outside of Mac, iOS and a test for Android

[shnizmuffin@lemmy.inbutts.lol]

That way is old and busted, here's the new hotness (anchor positioning).
