I think I’d be happy with a device that only displayed text and only let me type text. For everything else worth doing, a VHS and a good old cathode ray would be fine. Modern tech seems far too vulnerable.
To be honest, I do like the visual perks of javascript, but having it literally everywhere is just inefficient. HTML+CSS had the advantage of running on a fucking potato with less risks, but you could do just blogs, difficult user interaction (done by email back in the day iirc).
