Cannot view Pinterest even though Javascript is enabled

more options

Went to a guy's pinterest page and its saying "Oh no! Pinterest doesn't work unless you turn on JavaScript." But I went to About:config and it IS enabled. I have reloaded the page repeatedly & toggeled repeatedly I also use an AddOn called "Just Disable..." and Jasvascript is enabled according that as well as per about:config. What else might be doing this?

I read that pinterest forces you to register after a couple of views. Just in case I have enabled the AddOn Pinterest Guest to nullify that.

But still getting the same message saying I need to enable Javascript.

Do you use any content blocking extensions? I'm sure as a frequent poster here you know what I'm going to suggest next...

But just in case: use each extension's unblock feature, one at a time, and reload the page in between. When it finally works, you're done. I would start with anything script related (e.g., NoScript, uMatrix), then anti-tracking, then ad blocking last.

Yea but that takes forever; hoping someone knows the culprit. Before posting I looked at the AdBlock Plus filter prefs and there are plenty of lines including "pinterest" but no way I see to toggle them as a group. I presume "enabled" means the line is blocked. But AdBlock should be smart enough not to break the page.

You didn't provide a list of your enabled extensions so the odds of someone guessing the source of the problem is probably zero.
