It is a revelation how quickly some sites will load when you turn off JS, and by extension much of the modern web. I mean, really, really quick, as you avoid the blocking of third-party services, which is quite common these days.

It does also highlight how many sites actually depend on large numbers of external sites for basic functions on their own site.

As an example - a site would not load at all, because it was trying to load dogshit like Disqus. Sigh!
