Just my 2¢ as a user who does not yet have the time to contribute: I typically browse the Web with JavaScript disabled and don’t think JavaScript should be required without a good reason. Currently the packages page loads somewhat slowly in Netsurf and GNU Icecat for me (with and without JS) but I can search the packages with Ctrl+F. Please at least retain some sort of search functionality for non-JS users (server-side search through a form?). Regards, Florian
