We have two versions of our product: (1) SPA-like experience and (2) <14kb, <200 lines of css, <30 lines of JavaScript. We are debating whether to maintain the LiteMode (the SPA is actually SSR, we've decoupled our MVC well, so maintaining the LiteMode is only 20% more work). This got me thinking. What if we made the LiteMode entirely text-only, maybe with some optional CSS. No JavaScript. I tested HN and it degrades fairly well. Some things such as the comment toggle doesn't work. There's actually a HTML
element nowadays provides this toggability out of the box without JavaScript. At any rate, is it worth voiding the LiteMode of any and all JavaScript? Do people browse the internet with JavaScript disabled?
