Back in the day the best way to find cool sites when you were on a cool site was to click next in the webring. In this age of ailing search engines and confidently incorrect AI, it is time for the webring to make a comeback.

      Then the entire browser becomes useless. I couldn’t even post this comment without JavaScript.

      Edit: I wish a search engine that only showed websites without JavaScript existed.

        Umatrix is great, you can configure it to automatically allow first party javascript, and if sites still dont work eneable bits until they do them lock those settings so the same bits will be enabled next time you’re on that site.

            noscript is like a screwdriver. umatrix is the whole toolbox.

            both have their place

        I wish also that THAT search engine also made it so turning on results that have paywalls is a thing you can only have turned on if YOU turn it on

        Not useless. I don’t use JS. Yeah. Maybe 1/10 websites you have to skip.
