    It took forever for YouTube's ton* of #JavaScript to load, but yeah, that does look like fun.

    * Even after the video starts playing, the controls don't work until the last piece of #JabbaShit loads. Not even the "don't autoplay the next video" button. The actual video was already over by that time. WTH YouTube?

    @storm #Pleroma comes with PleromaFE and MastoFE. I know PleromaFE is high in #JavaScript. If the #JabbaShit interferes with your assistive technologies, there is a separate front end called “Bloat”, which is supposed to be much less JavaScript-y.

    I have not seen Bloat myself (I don’t even know the project’s URL), so this is all hearsay.

    I should probably go ahead and close my #Twitter account. I keep saying I'm going to log in again, but I haven't ... partly because they've now made it impossible to use without turning on #JavaScript / #JabbaShit ... together with all the other unpleasing things about the site, I just don't want to deal with it anymore.

    It is irritating that so many #socnets think they have to be entirely depending on #JavaScript. Mastodon and #Pleroma both require #JabbaShit before they display anything or have even basic functionality.

    It is bad, anti-human design.

    @mangeurdenuage There are also some sites that try to prevent copy-pasting passwords. I think PayPal does this when people are changing passwords. It's evil, but if users have #JavaScript / #JabbaShit activated, sites can do things like this.

    I do agree that users need to be willing to think and to learn something when using computing devices. Trying not to have to think, not to learn something is a direct highway to having someone else do all your thinking and make all your decisions and choices for you.

    I also think developers and companies like to change the UI and the way users interact with software far too often. No, you don't need to follow this year's appearance fad like you followed the fads of the year for the past 2-3 years. Leave things alone for a few years.

    @mangeurdenuage Sounds like PleromaFE. I think some instances run alternate front ends which may or may not work without #JavaScript / #JabbaShit.

    "Your browser is not Javascript enable or you have turn it off. We recommend you to activate for better security reason"

    Oh, yes. Turning on #JavaScript / #JabbaShit is going to improve my security as you plunder my browser history and upload my files and photos to your server. I will turn it on right away.

    JS-based webapps are a lot like adding salt to one's food. There's a point where you're simulating food with colored salt. No matter how appealing it looks, it is still nasty and harmful.

    Had to restart #Palemoon because it was getting slow. Too much #JavaScript / #JabbaShit bloating up its memory and CPU consumption. I'd really like it if most sites went on a JS diet and cut out most of the unwanted and unnecessary scripts.

    Probably time to look into replacing Rutabaga (the Lenovo IdeaPad with 2G of RAM and 32G of eMMC disk). I was using it to look up some instructions for something I was doing on another machine. One link opened YouTube in another tab and immediately froze the machine.

    After a reboot, I went back in. The next link opened a tab full of #JavaScript. The #JabbaShit, predictably, sucked up all the RAM and froze the machine again.

    Then I thought, I won't use the browser at all. Opened an IDE, which immediately started downloading updates and again froze the machine.

    I think #sonTwo had the same sort of issues with a different model (but similar specs) IdeaPad. He had to replace it with something that has better specs.

    @musicman @strypey Also, in the process of reading about it, I came across https://nu.federati.net/url/266568 [wapo]

    Turn off #JavaScript / #JabbaShit and their “turn off your adblocker” garbage won’t interfere.

    There are still a number of places where I saw “underfunded and ineffective”, but this is someone that worked there (possibly during the time when Trump is said to have shut down PRT).

    If I get TME* this week, I'll set up a #Friendica instance for !fnetworks ... membership is only available to people with currently active Federati accounts.

    I was going to set up #Pleroma, but the PleromaFE interface has too much #JavaScript / #JabbaShit piled up ... It causes my browsers to repeatedly pop up warnings about a hung script.

    Consider it a testing instance for the time being

    @mangeurdenuage Yeah, that's something I _really_ dislike about #Pleroma. Just to view one post or someone's profile, one has to download bushels of #JabbaShit ( #JavaScript ) and wait through 1-2 dialogs about slow scripts.

    @mangeurdenuage Yeah, #Pleroma is #JavaScrippled and bloated with gobs of unnecessary #JabbaShit ( #JavaScript ). They really need to slim down their use of JS and make the basic page load without it.

    #Mastodon also depends on JS to load much of its content.

    In my opinion, most of this could be done better and faster without the JS (although JS is needed for downloading new posts without a full page reload).

    Hoping I have time and resources to actually write my #vaporware projects (federated socnet servers) soon.

    Masto 3.0 wasn't a pleasant experience when I had a MastoSoc account. In fact, it was painful to use. If PleromaFE wasn't packing so much #JabbaShit that it could choke a pornstar, I'd encourage Mastodon admins to switch software to Pleroma. #JavaScript
