TorBroswer javascript

Hi,
I have switched to Qubes and updated to Whonix GW and WS 16. Why is javascript true in the tor browser? Do I need to do more torbrowser configurations so that the browser is configured exactly as under virtualbox in the ws? Why are there differences?

best regards
ano

See: You should Disable JavaScript by Default!

No.

Generally, see:

There are minimal unavoidable difference Tor Browser Bundle versus Whonix ™ Tor Browser which are documented here:
Whonix ™ Tor Browser Differences

I don’t think there are. You might be mistaken. At time of writing, Whonix for VirtualBox vs Qubes-Whonix does not have different javascript enabled/disabled default settings.
