Google says it has begun requiring users to turn on JavaScript in order to use Google Search, possibly in an effort to block certain SEO tools.

      Do these old browsers not support DuckDuckGo?

        DuckDuckGo forces TLS while google doesn’t, so you can use IE5 or an old Safari with Google, but not with DDG.

        Do you think their owners know of duckduckgo?

          How many users are using browsers that are old enough they don’t even support JS? It’s one thing to disable it for security/privacy (which the OP was talking about), because those users are probably more tech savy.

              What’s the experience like when reading threaded conversations like Lemmy? Is it possible for you to post a screenshot?
