NO lozer. This is NOT okay under ANY circumstance. Google is actively antagonistic against the interests of gelbooru and its userbase in general. (pro-censorship, pro-SJW, anti-japanese culture in general.)
Many people don't want google's tracking shit from their third-party javascripts. By putting core functionality of the site behind these scripts you are forcing your users to allow google to track everything they do on the site if they want to use the sites features. And then google will use that data to better feed and train its censorship apparatus.
Privacy is important, ESPECIALLY on a site like this. There needs to be an alternate solution implemented or there are going to be MAJOR long-term problems in the foreseeable future.
Further vindication of my claims that gelbooru is quickly going to hell in a handbasket.
