It makes me laugh that these massive tech companies build these websites now that don't even bother printing a message on <noscript> it's like fuck you, a white page, it's all we can afford for you.

Threads.net being just a what page, but tons and tons of garbage in the source.

@neauoire It's better than adding an insult into <noscript>...

Google Maps infamously said "When you eliminate the JavaScript whatever remains must be a blank page."

@neauoire reminds me of this

a designer is handing svg to a developer in the first panel, like kids passing notes in class.
in the second panel the developer has a sour look on their face, because the “svg” is just a big base64 encoded png embedded in an image element.

@neauoire What’s even “better” is this isn’t just noscript, it will show a blank page on every browser other than chrome. Even with JS enabled.
