I must say, I don't understand the disable JS movement. I browse with JS on, and uBlock Origin to block ads. It's rare that I have any javascript-related problems in my web browsing. On the other hand, I definitely use a number of sites that rely on javascript for useful purposes.

If you're worried about tracking, you can block ads and tracking scripts without disabling javascript. If you're worried about viruses, well, all I can say there is that in my experience and understanding, if you keep your browser updated, the odds of getting a virus via browser JS are exceedingly low. Doubly so if you're not frequenting sketchy sites.

I don't know, it seems to me like advice from a time before security was a priority for browser makers, and high-quality ad blockers existed. At this point, I really don't see the value.

I keep it disabled just so sites load faster. Except for 1 or 2 sites, I don't care about anything except for the main text on a page, so it's a waste of time to let a ton of javascript run and load/format things that I don't care about.

I generally visit web pages with JavaScript disabled and them immediately click "reader view". But there are certainly a lot of sites where content is loaded with script, and for those pages I must enabled JS. Q: Does anyone know of a Safari iOS add-in that allows for whitelisting of specific sites to run JS?

Not sure if this solves your entire problem, but you can disable all content blockers for any sit in Safari for iOS[1].
