She told me she’s [...] also thinking about a version that doesn’t require JavaScript, which some privacy-minded disable in their browsers.

As someone who is keenly aware of the privacy and security problems that come with allowing web scripts, I hope she prioritizes this soon. It's really disappointing to find sites that were formerly readable without javascript suddenly inaccessible since adopting Anubis. The more sites that do this, the more people are pushed toward enabling scripts by default, exposing them to a great many trackers and web exploits that would otherwise be blocked.
