You're right - I'll remove that now until we can get it more performant or drop it altogether. This wasn't something we caught during testing. I appreciate the feedback!

While you are at it, it would be good, if the post was readable at all, without having to run JS on the page.

It rendered perfectly, without JavaScript, in Emacs EWW.

I think perhaps Emacs does not support the `hidden` attribute?

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/...

If you check the source (not the DOM) the actual content is loaded in `<div hidden="" id="S:0"> ...` which is then moved/copied into the proper main content div in the DOM using a JS event it seems.

It must have sent it differently if the browser reports it can’t do JavaScript.

I used to try EWW sometimes, but it sometimes made whole Emacs crash at unpredictable times, so I stopped trying to use it. But good to know, maybe I will try again in the future, hoping it becomes more stable/safe.

I don’t think EWW has ever made my Emacs crash. I wanna say I’ve been using it regularly since Emacs 27.
