    I was talking about my own experiences. We can agree to disagree on what is a better user experience, as it’s inherently subjective. I can’t think of a site I’ve come across that was made better by javascripts, from my own perspective and experiences. I have always been let down and frustrated by such sites and always relieved to find static sites.

    It is only your opinion that dynamic UI elements aren’t worth it.

    Yes. And for all of the reasons I’ve given, I stand by my opinions on javascripts. You’re free to disagree. I wasn’t trying to convince anyone, just sharing my experiences and opinions on them.

    Sorry if I came across as dismissive of your experiences and opinions.

      I tried using the web again last night with a browser extension that toggles off JavaScript. Out of like 8 websites I tried to use, literally all of them were broken.

      So it’s not even just convenience. It’s that practically no one is building websites to work without JavaScript. I think that sucks, but I cannot change it by just avoiding most websites in defiance.

      I don’t know what websites you’re using that still work without JavaScript, but they’re in the minority from what I can tell.

      I understand, I just felt you were stating things as if they’re objectively true. Maybe I missed something. Have a good rest of your day.
