       Cool idea for making eww more usable in the modern web? Something like libredirect for browsers but for eww. eww has an option called eww-translate-urls which it uses to remove tracking, but could also be used turn one domain to another, for example, stackoverflow which now requires JavaScript to a working anonymous overflow instance. This would probably require you to maintain a list of closest servers to you, fetch public instances and also try queries to see if you get a 200 OK response (cause sometimes these front ends can error out). Additionally an option to use different instances (top 5 for example) per url.There's also Anubis, which makes no JS less practical because of ai scrapers changing the game of the web. One thing for the Anubis check is, you could spawn for a given URL an instance of chromium, let the check pass then close it. I noticed after the check passes you can use the website with the check on EWW. So that could be a possible workaround?#emacs
