For somethings you really can't help but depend on javascript. I don't really mind it if it's something ambitious enough, it's the display of basic content breaking that bugs me most.
A dashboard may still work if you can just display the current data and add a note that because JS is disabled the page must be refreshed manually to pull updated values. You don't even have to throw in a refresh button since the browser's already got one. If I go to a website without JS enabled I expect things to take a bit more work on my part.
Minified JS is a problem I run into a lot. Most of the time though, I err on the side of caution and just move on. There's so many interesting things worthy of my attention that if the site full of inscrutable javascript is just a random article/blog post or something shared as a general "hey look at this cool/fun/impressive site" it can easily be abandoned for something less troublesome.
For sites I actually do need to access for some reason I can take the time to analyze it properly, but most of the time those kinds of sites are already familiar/trustworthy, and I've got other options too like firing up a less restricted browser in a VM.
I certainly don't expect developers to give up using JavaScript for the sake of the few users like me, but the better a site does at keeping content accessible without it the less likely I am to just move on to the next tab.
