    Can't trust vibecoded website tbh cause they're just saying BS there, as longest the javascripts off, it wouldn't be able to obtain the obvious data of your devices

    You absolute can fingerprint someone without JavaScript enabled. This article explains what signals a website can use when JS is disabled, and those signals include probing what CSS features your browsers supports.

    Unfortunately it looks like the demo link in their article doesn’t exist anymore. It definitely used to, because I remember testing it few years ago. But the write up is still good.

    Looks like the demo is open source: https://github.com/fingerprintjs/blog-nojs-fingerprint-demo

    That's a cool project but most websites are using JavaScript for tracking, and I doubt most website have the afford to even use CSS just to track someone who doesn't have JS on.

    That is not true, a lot of it is sent willingly by your browser.

    And they could display it if the website was well done

    If you're referring to browser user agent, then yes it's trackable but other than that it is useless with no JS cause it can't access timezone, browser plugin, screen size, font or webgl rendering fingerprints.

    Also I don't use "most browser" like chrome, I mostly use firefox focus or safari for my iPhone running lockdown mode; also librewolf in my personal computer.
