Or just say fuck them and refer them to Apple customer service when they start complaining since it's an Apple issue not platform issue.
Do you work as a web dev? Flipping off 20% of your user base doesn’t exactly land you jobs.
I'd guess a large portion here are hobbyists, and I'm totally fine with showing 20% of random people the consequences of their choices, as it has no actual impact on anyone, and a lot of professionals have to adhere to company standards, so going JS-less isn't even an option anyway.
These random people aren't aware of the consequences of their choices and shouldn't be punished for them. But at the same time, Apple needs to feel some pressure. But I doubt that regular users are going to go to Apple's customer service and complain about sites that aren't working on their phones. People just don't do that. It's a tricky conundrum.
