real-world-onion-sites VS documentation

Yes. I don't get ambushed by illegal content, as most of my surfing with Tor is for browsing the clearnet, (which is fairly innocuous and more sanitized than the dark web). I do use the 'real world' onions[0] to read The New York Times, etc

Many widely used sites will still break. And I don't believe you actually know how many onion sites require js or not.

Invidious, it's privacy front-end to youtube (open-source ofc). Check which instance fits you: https://github.com/iv-org/documentation/blob/master/Invidious-Instances.md

In some countries that are not modern, developed liberal democracies and don't have guaranteed civil liberties, the right of free speech, and privacy laws, government authorities might investigate and prosecute users connecting to the types of sites you mentioned and other types of sites if the government has outlawed or blocked them e.g., BBC News, SkyNews, YouTube, etc., which is exactly why users in such countries use Tor to connect to clearnet and legitimate onion sites — to circumvent blocking and evade detection and prosecution (note: some users of Tor in any type of country predictably might choose an Invidious Instance to watch online videos.)

Use Tor Browser to preserve your online anonymity and privacy and to evade tracking by Facebook, Google, and other legal or illegal trackers. Invidious example: in list, connect to any link, e.g, this link. In the search bar, enter Queen of England and press . Take you pick of videos about Queen of England across multiple pages. No tracking. No ads. Privacy.

Hi. You might want to check Invidious’ FAQ. It answers your question (spoiler: no). Next time, you might want to refer to a project's documentation before asking Reddit to do this for you. ;)
