Any recommendations on how to mitigate risks like this when it comes to browsing lemmy? Any lite version to see lemmy through without Javascript?

No. The existing Lemmy-Lite that was advertised on join-Lemmy.org appears to be massively out of date, and no longer actively maintained.

It was a bug with Lemmy-UI, so you might be able to get away using an app or site that isn't vulnerable. Whether that is Wefwef, one of the apps, like Jerboa, or something that is Federated, but not Lemmy, like Kbin, or Mastodon (things might be a bit clunky if you do, since Lemmy threads aren't well handled by Mastodon).
