You don't have to imagine, you can try: https://mbasic.facebook.com/ - a lot of people prefer it to the standard monstrosity.

I use mbasic.facebook as my main was of interacting with Facebook. I acknowledge that my choice to disable JavaScript is unusual and will jump through some hoops because of that, but it's not excusable for a website to display /nothing/ pre-script like the OP does.

Good example. After getting used to the 1998 feel, it's much more practical than the usual one.

The great thing about this is that it's paginated. You can literally "scroll infinitely" through feeds without creating a ridiculous scroll offset and filling up browser memory (or losing Ctrl-F functionality due to Facebook's complex memory-saving exercises)

Nice but it could use a bit more whitespace, feels crowded.

this makes me miss the OG fb. I dont use facebook much, but I think I would use it quite a bit more if this was the layout.
