Just started getting this now. Hopefully it's some A/B testing that they'll stop doing, but I'm not holding my breath

Htmx does use javascript under the hood, but just makes it so the developer can use html markdown for more a more interactive environment that's driven sever side. So the initial page load should render, but UI elements might not work as intended.

htmx is more a move back to REST as it was originally defined (aka not json backend).

They're also working with browser developers to push htmx into web standards, so that hopefully soon you won't even need htmx/JS/etc, it'll just be what your browser does by default
