SAFARI does not work on most websites What is happening to Safari 16.1 in Ventura 13.01? Most websites do not even load even if the content restrictions are disabled in the Safari settings? Everything works on the same iMac Pro in Microsoft's Edge, Firefox, Chrome. WHY is Safari such a junk browser after the latest updates????? I was relying on Safari for all my work, and all of a sudden I am forced to use browsers that I am not so found of to do basic browsing and work. This is ridiculous...is this Ventura pushing Intel-based Macs users to buy M1 Macs or just Apple MacOS turning into a Windows XP -type experience?? Anyone else having these issues?

Mine don't use extra RAM when pinned. My Safari with multiple tabs opened uses about 754 mb of RAM.
