What's this gotta do with Javascript?

It a) uses more resources, b) help fingerprinting, c) may disqualify your browser/os easier and faster because of bleeding-edge browser APIs that you mostly don't need.

Valid concerns, but maybe you misread. This is about GitLab, not Github.

I'm talking about all git services that uses javascript. GitHub, Gogs and Gitea cooperate better with NoScript. Bitbucket and GitLab are meh.
