is there a noscript/basic (x)html interop portal?

Or will we need a nitter of it?

They are working on federating with ActivityPub, and there are lots of clients for AP that can be used without JS. The default frontend for Pleroma (which is the AP server I run) has a JS free option.

I think there are already web clients that are meant to be run standalone and can connect to any server anyways though, so those might be useful for viewing Threads.

I wonder what changes in particular they had to make to ensure legal compliance.

The main issue, as usual, client requirements to create a user account.
