Simple animations can be done via CSS, so after javascript, a css fallback would be nice and an actual usable website would also be nice if using an older browser. It's not about the 1% or 3% visitors that can't use the site, it's about the wrong mindset developers go to work with. If there's any chance your target audience doesn't use a modern browser, than you have to develop for that specific audience. Your market is gold and you must develop especially for it.

Graceful degradation is a valid concern, but your article represents these as design faux-pas when all they really are are lazy developers who didn't think about the 1%.

You should check on your own website how many people do have javascript within their browser. For a non-technical niche website, that percentage will be much lower, while for an IT site it will probably go to almost 100%. I don't really use Facebook, sorry. French: Ces statistiques sont différentes du sit au sit. Vous devez vérifier sur votre propre site combien de personnes ont JavaScript dans leur navigateur. Pour un sit de niche non-technique, ce pourcentage sera beaucoup plus faible, alors que pour un sit informatique il ira probablement à près de 100%. Je n'utilise pas Facebook, désolé.
