Imgur
How do I view the images in this Imgur gallery? It doesn't work without
proprietary JavaScript.

Also, I'm looking to add the conveniences of GNOME to MATE, but without
the slowness. Dynamic workspaces, search, overview...

You can try "view-source:" before the URL and search for image formats (JPG, PNG etc). (In this URL I found one desktop image.)
Once you put "view-source:" before the URL (in this case, view-source:https://imgur.com/gallery/WuB56fq)
then
Search through the source for the lines that contain: itemtype="http://schema.org/ImageObject"
These are the lines that give you the ID for the different pictures in the imgur gallery.
In this case, we have the following four image ID's:
II4rVzp
9GqTe4Q
ZrmUmIT
yWZGTtg
Now, put each of the image ID's into a url as follows: https://i.imgur.com/(image-ID).jpg
So you'll get the following 4 URL's for your pictures:
https://i.imgur.com/II4rVzp.jpg
https://i.imgur.com/9GqTe4Q.jpg
https://i.imgur.com/ZrmUmIT.jpg
https://i.imgur.com/yWZGTtg.jpg
Those are simple pages with an image that should open without js. The first one is a cool looking Cthulhu wallpaper on a Mate desktop. The others just show different programs open on a Mate desktop.
andyprough, thanks for your comment. Your trick still works now after first changing the browser's user agent (to e.g. iPhone via User Agent Switcher add-on). I think some images are in PNG format and not available in JPEG format so jpg extension might need to be replaced with png.
Is there a simple way to download flickr albums (like in the link below)?

This solution requires a Flickr API key. There is a Java application called RipMe which might do the trick (I haven't managed to run it sadly).
If you're on Abrowser (or any other Firefox variant) you can use an add-on called ZeroImgur to redirect all imgur links to a proxy. Works without any javascript and is licensed under the GPL.
As far as flickr, I didn't see any simple methods for grabbing images without proprietary JS.
