Without JavaScript enabled, your site says "OKKAPPS" and the screenshots on the start page are all blurry for no apparent reason.

This site heavily relies on Gatsby and therefore on React. Disabling JavaScript disables React components, slows down page transitions, prevents service workers from preloading page data, etc.

So this is somehow a predicted behaviour. Do you think supporting disabled JS on websites is nowadays still required?

Yes, it is - it even is more than ever before, because of increased malvertising.

A website that does not display text or images properly if you don't allow its creator to run code on your computer is broken.
