Many sites like “Elude” work perfectly without javascript, allowing their use through tools to escape censorship such as Tor.

Why doesn’t Lemmygrad implement this too?

While removing dependence on Javascript is noble for a variety of reasons, that… is not how honeypots work, nor does avoidance of Javascript really have anything to do with Tor.

Edit: when I posted this the OP said something about “this is necessary to know that lemmygrad isn’t a honeypot”

Tor browser uses LTS firefox, is sometimes late with updates for bugs that don’t seem critical and is mostly the same on every (OS, platform) pair. Disabling javascript makes successfully exploiting any existing bugs many magnitudes harder. (which is already quite hard at this point tbh)
