This looks interesting.

I browse the WWW without JavaScript and this bricks many comment systems. Are you planning to make a widget without reliance on JavaScript?

Why do you browse the web without javascript? It is just a programming language.

I browse with JavaScript disabled because A) I don’t see any ads and B) pages load fast on my weak devices (first gen. iPad Air, ~2009 desktop).

I only turn on JavaScript to be able to use the website of my bank.

You can enable JavaScript in Chrome the following way:

1) On your computer, open Chrome. 2) At the top right, click More. Settings. 3) Click Privacy and security. Site settings. 4) Click JavaScript. 5) Turn on Allowed (recommended).

Other browsers might have similar instructions.

I think OP is aware of how to turn on JS, but prefers browsing without.

I think they are being sarcastic.
