Safari Dev Tools Not Working

When going into the dev tools to make changes to css the browser instantly resets and doesn't allow me to enter in new properties or change any existing ones. Only seems to happen on certain sites.

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

safari will not open web pages Safari 16.1 on MBP 12.6.1 Monterey Safari will not open pages, especially those at top of a search. Multiple pages freeze or load only partial content. Safari itself is glitchy, has random slow-downs and short-terms freezes which do not seem to be related to computer activity. This has been an issue for several versions of Safari, including the latest. I tried the multiple suggestions from Apple support (like reload, purge history, etc) none of which do anything. Anyone has a solution or explanation? Other browser like Edge and Brave work fine...

Hover does not work on Safari Since last big Safari update on my MacBook I experience the following problem: Safari does not recognise that I hover over links, buttons or other active elements. Previously cursor turned into the hand and the element changed in color (or did something similar depending on the website). Now cursor does nothing. It is especially inconvenient while working in Google Tables as it becomes completely impossible to change the size of the columns or work with websites where the information was provided by the cursor hover on the graphs/dropdown lists/etc. Restart of the browser helps only only for the firs opened tab. Does anyone have the same issue?

No the problem still exists. I have had to use Chrome & Firefox in the meantime to troubleshoot. I prefer Safari so I wish this was fixed. It only started happening within the last several months for me.
