$ to support non-JS users > $ revenue from non-JS users


That is simply not true in this case. All I need to get twitter readable with no-script is this ublock origin rule:

    ! 7/24/2019 https://twitter.com
    twitter.com##form.NoScriptForm
The data (tweets) are there already, they just intentionally hide it.


Could you please explain how you add that (those?) rules to uBlock Origin?

I use UBO to block js across the web by default and would like to include twitter but their "no-js" site is garbage.

$ lost serving non-JS users < $ lost getting an engineer to spend his time implementing dark patterns targeting non-JS users

It's spiteful.


Like Amazon is intentionally enabling counterfeiting, Twitter's website is now intentionally broken. Somehow Twitter forgot how to build a functional website.
