I dealt with a site that used Javascript to create the login fields, and also to stop copy'n'paste the password. Turn off Javascript to copy'n'paste, then the fields don't work.
I got around it by making my password manager #KeepassXC autofill the login fields. I'm guessing it stuffs password into the keyboard buffer rather than using the paste buffer.
Edit: add @keepassxc
If we're adding to the lexicon, then I propose:

Javascrippled; Didn't Read
Too many websites are Javascript dependent when Plain Ol' Semantic HTML would have worked, and it seems web developers have forgotten about graceful degradation, or even progessive enhancement.
Javascript is something up with which I will not put.
TIaL about the Potato computer. Almost, the https://libre.computer/ is #Javascrippled to the point of not showing anything.
And the sadness is, Google Maps used to work fine without #Javascript.
I think most web developers (especially Google) have the smarts to build pages that build gracefully depending on browser capability: Showing content first, then style, and finally adding behaviour with Javascript. Content and style is the easy part, make sure it's there first.
So why don't they? Do the client specs require #Javascrippled content so they'll get surveillance?
(Added some #AltText, BTW)
Cognitive dissonance (maybe irony?) from The Globe and Mail: The CN Tower obscured by smog, while workers assemble seating for a car race.
Bad enough that they're still holding car races in a #ClimateCrisis, but to add that car exhaust to the air when Torontonians are already suffering from this level of air pollution?
(maybe exhaust from the racing cars is less than exhaust from cars that would usually be on those streets? Hey, #LazyWeb!)
Horrible #Javascrippled site:

So I thought I'd provide a link to the Darkrnet Diaries website and the podcast feed URL, but the website doesn't display in @privacybrowser probably because the website is Javascript-dependent, or #Javascrippled. So there's an inaccessible dark pattrern that makes me never want to visit again.
How do people with screen readers deal with that?
