More Safari gibberish in a long line of Safari gibberish After updating to Sonoma and Safari 17, certain websites can't display readable text. I have read similar descriptions that go back to 2004 with all manner of complicated solutions that don't seem to work in 2023. Here a screenshot from Strava's website: I can select the gibberish and paste it into Text Edit and it's readable. Why only certain websites? Seems like any adjustments I make to my Mac couldn't possibly affect a problem that seems rooted in individual website's code, no? -D

Safari does not load pages after update to 12.5.1 After updating my MacBook Pro (M1, 2020) to version 12.5.1 Safari does not load any pages anymore. Simply typing www.apple.com does not lead to a connection to the website. All other connections seems fine. I now use chrome to browse and write this :-(. I restarted my computer a couple of times. I reinstalled macOS Monterey and this did not help. Anyone any ideas what can be te issue here? Before the update everything worked fine. thanks, Hans

Safari stops loading webpages Issue: Type web address into address bar select enter progress bar appears, but stops part way (estimate about 10%, judging how far the blue line moves) after a period, the progress bar disappears and a white page is displayed For pages that are already open, content stops refreshing The issue is only temporarily resolved by restarting the machine. I have a 14'' MacBook Pro with M1Pro chip I'm running MacOS version 12.3 and Safari version 15.4
