Sad to see that Ecosia and Qwant don't seem to work without Javascript. I'll stick with DDG, and may consider using Mojeek more in the future. The fact that DDG doesn't have its own index does bother me a bit.

The difference that JS seems to make for DDG when I search with and without is pretty large. I get completely different sets of results, and the non JS side is often much, much less relevant.
