> Something went wrong. Disable your adblocker on TechCrunch

No, that actually means something went well - my adblocker saved me from being blasted by distracting, deceitful, dangerous content.

Pro tip: reader mode bypasses this aggressive “go away” banner.

NoScript is a layer that makes my experience on the internet so much better.

How do you make it work without breaking every website? I've tried it once and pretty much nothing loaded since like 99.9% of the web uses js for basic functionality.

You either whitelist them or stop using them. Whitelist is by script domain, so the ads usually still don't load. Until you have to whitelist *.cloudfront.net

Hmm, that sounds like something that would work best in the same way that ublock premade blocklists work, by crowdsourcing whitelisting?

We must be visiting different websites. I've had JS off for years now, no major issues. You whitelist what you absolutely must, enjoy 90% of the rest, while rejecting the 10% remainder with prejudice. Works great, especially for security, performance, and battery life.

The vast, vast majority of websites have no business of using so much JS, especially in critical paths, anyways.
