When downloading something in Safari browser I can see download speed. After clicking again on download button, speed disappears and time remaining appears and download speed is no longer available. Is it possible to have both at the same time? I tried all suggestions on internet since macOS versions old more than decade, but still the same bug. Is it possible to solve it? I have macOS Mojave.
Thanks in advance
You have no control over what has been engineered into Safari 12.0.3, or 12.1 with regards to download speed and time remaining display. What you see is browser autonomy in what it displays, and you are not going to see speed and time remaining at all times.
The browser decides to show how it was programmed. Of course, the developers could have shown a continuous variable download speed and time remaining. There is room for this information. Programmatically, and unless multi-threaded, Safari would be interrupted every time it had to do these calculations, and perhaps the developers decided speed over program reporting was in the best interest of the end user. As a fellow user, I have no inside knowledge that this was the case.
If you want an accurate, non-flash based view of your download speed, use speedof.me.
So browser itself decides what to show? In my opinion this is strange, i guess it isn't very difficult for developers to put both time remaining and speed info like all other browsers..I really don't understand why they made it that way..
Thanks for info
