Safari not displaying images in Canvas - Cross-site tracking is unchecked

As stated in the title and shown in the screenshot, for whatever reason canvas will not display images if I'm using safari. I've has cross-site tracking disabled, emptied the cache and cleared my history multiple times and have ensured that disable images is not checked in the develop tab. I don't like using chrome as it seems to consume all my memory and cause my iMac's fan to be constantly on. I'm running macOS Catalina 10.15.6 on a 2019 iMac. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.15

Heh, this showed up a couple times and unfortunately still has not been resolved yet. If you do not wish to install chrome, there are other browsers such as Firefox and Opera.

As said by someone in the Canvas support community: Canvas engineers are currently working on a solution for this issue. Until then, you may avoid errors with files and alerts by disabling cross-site tracking prevention in Safari when using Canvas. The method you tried won't resolve the issue. The error is on Apple's and Canvas's side.


This has been going on since around Apr 2020

In theory, if it was possible to downgrade the version of Safari, you would be able to use canvas as normal.

I have the same issues after the recent update on Catalina MacOS. I have the current version 10.15.6. This issue is very annoying.


I have tried all possible things from resetting my router to safe mode and to reinstalling MacOS from scratch but the issue is still there.


For now, I'm using the Edge Chromium browser because it has the neat feature of safety and privacy.
