    All Lemmy instances on v0.18.0 are inaccessible with javascript disabled. The only way to privately browse Lemmy instances now is via kbin. I was hoping that Lemmy was going to focus more on privacy with the coming updates. Maybe this will be fixed in v0.18.1?

      JavaScript itself has nothing to do with privacy. I assume you think so because you are using Tor Browser at the higest security setting that disables JavaScript entirely?

      IMHO just stop using that broken-by-design browser and use a browser extension with a JavaScript allow-list.

        It should still be possible to browse the internet with JS disabled. Especially Free Software should set a high standard to that. It’s understandable that Lemmy devs have too much on their heads now, but let’s not pretend that it’s okay to make websites which aren’t viewable without JS.
