Most of the NZ Parliament web pages consist of text, links and... that's it;
https://bills.parliament.nz/v/2/fbbb3fcc-4eb6-4d7f-39a8-08dea63eeea9
Except for the logos of 4 predatory social media platforms (which should never have been there), there's not even much in the way of images. This could and should to be a simple static site; HTML and CSS, no JavaScript required.
Instead, it's not only serving a bunch of JS from its own domain, but also 2 Goggle domains, a CDN, and unpkg.com. Why?

I just tried to volunteer for the repair cafe in The Tron, and I this experience all over again;
I fought my way through a thicket of 3rd-party domains serving proprietary JS, and then had to do a bunch of unpaid MOLE Training for Goggle in order to submit the contact form. In the end it seemed to have submitted, but I got no feedback confirming that.

Stefan Korn is not wrong that public service website need to be simple static sites. Which can be accessed by voice assistants just as easily as web browsers without JavaScript (#MakeJavaScriptOptional!).
He's just wrong that they're not already designed that way.
He either doesn't know about NZ government website standards like Web Accessibility Standard 1.1;
https://digital.govt.nz/standards-and-guidance/
... or he's hoping that you don't.

Is #Mastodon really viable for the small to medium-sized operator?
We assert, "NO!"
We did something simple. With a Mastodon tab open we hit Ctrl+Shift+E to get the Network Tab. With an inactive thread open in Mastodon, we went to *another website* to read an article.
An hour passes and what we discovered shocked us. Mastodon somehow justified sending us 55MB of data. The #NetworkTab said 55MB over 1500 requests (53MB transferred).

This might be the worst webpage we've seen for a linux distro, yet!
How would you design it without #Javascript?

@greycat @tyil
There is a lightweight server called #Epicyon that also works without Javascript, and over the peer-to-perr I2P network, that you might be interested in.It should still be available at https://libreserver.org
The Akkoma server is supposed to be quite lightweight also buut if you want a non-javascript experience that won't drain your battery, you'll may want to use a front-end called #BloatFE.
-
@LionsPhil @nicuveo
When we say #BotFarmTimeline we mean the #ExploreTimeline, of course, designed to favour entities with #botFarms backing them.Mastodon should also restore their javascript-free interface that was recently dropped.
We really need to see other server types like #Epicyon (named after a type of big wild canine), #GNUSocial, and #FireFish gainmore developer interest.

@Rob @mconley @gunchleoc
Yes, even better by using TorBrowser in Safest Mode you are helping defeat a lot of bad actors, too. Not just 'Screw'-gle.We say #TransparentTorification, ie. putting all your traffic through Tor, is fine too and for heaven's sake use #I2P, especially for #torrenting.
Onion all the things — if your bank doesn't like it, get them to send you out a cheque book. They will **love** that
-
@ellenor2000 @af @metaphase
TorBrowser. Safest mode. Done.If your bank doesn't like it make them process and read your cheques with vibrant outspokemn words in the signature area.
A week or so ago we suggested a #MagicWand and #MagicEraser for Tor Browser to show or hide, respectively, different page elements without the need for javascript, or fiddling with the source HTML/CSS.
-
Would you like a MagicEraser and Wand in #TorBrowser.
The #magicEraser would make an annoying popup disappear without the need for javascript. The #magicWand would make 'opacity:0' and 'display:none' elements appear.
Poof!
Would you find this useful while using TorBrowser?
-
@Mastodon
For those thinking of forking Mastodon, please do so in a safe environment such as on the #InvisibleInternetProtocol (#I2P).- Consider removing the 'Explore' timeline (*cough* botfarm timeline)
- Consider #makeJavascriptOptional
- Consider not showing like and boost counts until a person actively opens the toot thread.
- Consider not implementing the #antifeatures mentioned above.In wartime, artists are the first to be targetted. Please #useI2P and live.
-
@rolle There are three troubling things in the current default setup as far as we know. On the whole we must say the UI is quite pleasant but the troubling things are cause for great alertness and we say favour maintaining a fork.
1) Forces Javascript (#makeJavascriptOptional),
2) The #ExploreTimeline (which we call the Popularised by Bots timeline) undermines the spirit of fediverse,
3) The showing of #LikeCounts etc without opening the toot leads to #groupThink. Again an anti-feature. -

Yeah, there's a reason why I:
1) never use the "official" app
2) never recommend the "official" app
3) never refer to the "official" app
4) never assent to the idea that there could ever be one app that's "official."Because it's kinda off. It's kind of a cultural half-breed.

The #ExploreTab is indeed one of the most toxic #MastodonRegressions that #MastodonDevs have introduced. Also forced javascript. We can see the bots are pumping the #turderatti with instant "#fame".Interestingly, ninety percent of people complaining about #techLayoffs at the #dotCons were in that joining-window also.

Unfortunately, Misskey doesn't work in TorBrowser at all, even when a user approves #JavaScript via the NoScript interface. Is invasive javascript used?If #MisskeyDev do find this info useful and are serious about giving back, please stop using cloudFlare at misskey-hub.net and repent by contributing to #DeCloudFlare.

:)Are you able to access #Epicyon hashtagged posts?
Epicyon is a Pleroma-fork that specialises in being lean, free of Javascript and friendly to the #onionMaximalist out-of-the-box.
-
@adnan360
We are likely to go Epicyon at some point, which is enhanced for #NoScript and #onionRouting and #garlicRouting. -
Just a quick message to the #NGI at the #EuropeanUnion.
Its not a great look that your webpage at https://ngi.eu fails to work without #JavaScript enabled.
Seriously c'mon.
It is a slick #loadingAnimation, though. Congrats on that.
We stand by our opinion that grants are toxic things, and a #UBI that goes up slightly with age is how to achieve greater #equality and limit #waste.

Irony is The #TorProject having a profile on #linkedIn that cannot be accessed via #TorBrowser.
Woops.
Last we heard linkedIn were being bought by #Amazon, so we'd rather be #linkedOut and forced to sleep in dog kennel or something than help Amazon #dataHarvest.
-
You know we are reaching the end when even #urlShortening services won't work without an "app" and #TorProject breaks accessible Tor addresses.

Unfortunately the ProjectVeritas website doesn't work without #JavaScript enabled.
Any sharing of the information would thus be highly appreciated. Ideally it would not be shared on a #Cloudflare server.
At this time, we would like to ask the #PotUS, #DonaldTrump to consider dropping all charges against the #Australian journalist, and go to considerable lengths to personally restore #Assange's character after years of #characterAssassination.

BTW in five days we will not be able to see your #Twitter page, Dear Pam.
On 15 Dec, #Birdsite are removing the #Javascript-free version of their site.
If you wish to be seen by real #activists who use #Fediverse, the #decentralised #socialMedia platform, then you will need to setup a server/instance here.
Mwah. Love your work!

Hey #BountySource, have you heard of HTML? It's this great tool that allows you to display text, graphics, audio, and video in a web page (with some CSS for layout), without any need for #Javascript. Check it out!
