Just started getting this now. Hopefully it’s some A/B testing that they’ll stop doing, but I’m not holding my breath

    DuckDuckGo doesn’t ;)

    By the way, in my browser, the title of this post shows up as

    Google now requires Javascript in c/mildlyinfuriating

    which shocked me a little.

    I know this may come off as a surprise: but I imagine that requiring JS in 2024 isn’t a big deal to most people.

    Now of course Lemmy skews more into that small crowd.

    I don’t blame any website for requiring JS for full functionality in 2024.

      All of the people replying to this saying you shouldn’t need JS are totally unaware how modern web development works.

      Yes, you could do many sites without JS, but the entire workforce for web development is trained with JS frameworks. To do otherwise would slow development time down significantly, not allow for certain functionality to exist (functionality you would 100% be unhappy was missing).

      Its not a question of possibility, its a question of feasibility.
