Good suggestion on the noscript.

There is actually a bunch of animation and interactivity on the site though. E.g. if you click on anyone in a thread, you see their bio and their other threads. And when you hover over a user’s popsicle stick on the newsfeed it pops up, which is stupid but oddly satisfying... We tried to give it the feel of popping bubble wrap.

Anyway prerendering more stuff is on our roadmap, so once that’s set up we can reevaluate.
