Yupp. I'm kind of used to this because I have resorted to use TOR browser almost exclusively since many years. It's an interesting kind of sports to see, how many of the domains I have to allow, of those which are listed in the NoScript box.


So I thought, why not start a list of websites, which actually do work without JavaScript enabled?


midnight.pub --- a nice no frills site to occasionally hang out

sourcehut.org and related sites like git.sr.ht --- imho this is the killer feature: "works without JavaScript" :-)

solar.lowtechmagazine.com --- a treasure trove of long forgotten technology

www.notechmagazine.com --- their sister site

dict.tu-chemnitz.de --- a dictionary DE -- EN, ES, PT

www.wikipedia.org --- works to some extent


My banks webpage did work without JavaScript and (more importantly) over TOR, but they switched systems a while back, and very unfortunately, this feature disappeared. Sniff. And yes, I informed them, that I notice a severe lack of nerd appeal on the current website.


Have fun!
