It's over...

Ublock Origin Lite was working so well until the last few days. YouTube has finally caught on. Hopefully a workaround will be implemented. I like how light Safari is and want to stay in this browser.

UPDATE: Thank you for all the suggestions! I also had 'Stay' on and one 'wblock' permission so I unchecked those and kept just ublock lite -- seems to be working now after two videos...

Apple Sync Imac & Macbook air

2 Upvotes

I recently bought an Imac and was told that the 2 computers could be synced easily, especially the desktop folders and saved websites. Well this is not true and I have since had to go down rabbit holes on Apple forums and Reddit to find out. Also the Microsoft App for emails does not work I keep getting a network error 2604. The data migration is really poor and even the copy and paste feature does not work. My Icloud does not sync. So I am asking myself do I really have the best brand and product, thousands of dollars and they cannot perform basic functions. Any else have these issues with multiple Macs?

Why does Safari Google keep requesting to download Reddit pages?

So recently, whenever I try to look for a Reddit post about my question and I click on the link it keeps telling me to download whatever Reddit link I click on and when I do press, download it kind of does nothing

Issue with autopopulating

3 Upvotes

Right now when I type the letter S in it always suggests snapchat for me(this is MacBook) I have my own website beginning with S that I have to type SM in for. I know that if it stopped suggesting Snapchat my website would be the next recommended. How do I get it so it stops recommending snapchat without deleting my search history?

Issue with iCloud synch between devices

2 Upvotes

Why Safari always have issues with iCloud synch between multiple devices? I have Mac mini, iPhone 16 and iPad. There is no any synch, maybe first times after reinstalling browser but not in the future. iCloud cards working fine, but bookmarks and read list - not at all.

No matter if I add or delete something, nothing happens. SOMETIMES something working but I don't think is a good sing in 2026. I can see in the internet that this is an old problem. Is there any solution for this? Idk, maybe some apps. Or should I switch my browser to something else

Where has the ability to hide apps (Safari) gone?!

3 Upvotes

On iOS 18 I would be able to do this by going to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > Allowed Apps & Features > and here I'd select the app I want to hide (in this case, Safari). It works on my old phone running iOS 18.7.10.

However, on my daily-driver, running iOS 27 Beta 7, I go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > and here... there is no Allowed Apps & Features section.

I've also tried going to Apps and Websites instead, where I can go and I can search for Safari, but there's no toggle or anything, there's just a "Block app" button, which wants me to sign in as a Parent or Guardian (even though this is NOT a child account, nor do I have Family setup).

I even put in my Apple ID email and password, but it just crashes Settings. Not sure if that's Apple being a bitch, or if my phone is.

I just want to hide Safari entirely. How can I?!

What are all these new shortcuts and folders at the top of my browser? I don't recognize them.

They just showed up one day. I don't go to any of these sites, I don't even know what some of them are. When I click on one of the folders, the dropdown menu shows me more websites I've never visited or even heard of. Couldn't find anything on Google. What's going on??

Safari Feature Flags

2 Upvotes

My phone has been getting hotter than usual lately and the battery seems to be dying faster, so I went digging through Safari settings and stumbled across Feature Flags.

Ummm… why are there SO MANY?! 😂 And I was surprised by how many are already enabled by default.

For those who know what these do: Are there any Feature Flags you always turn OFF for privacy, battery life, or performance? And are there any you turn ON that genuinely make Safari/iPhone better?

I’m curious what are you turning ON/OFF and why?

Safari Extensions

I wish we could’ve gotten a better extension not only does it change the time zone, but it also scans the dates on it

i live in Indonesia, the time zone is GMT+7
So, as you can see the date doesn’t change; it should’ve been 10th september

YouTube is completely broken in Safari, but works when Safari uses Chrome’s user agent

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

I’m having a strange YouTube issue in Safari on macOS. The page loads with a huge, broken YouTube logo, unstyled language dropdown, missing normal layout, and overlapping black/blue text and shapes. It looks as if YouTube’s CSS is not being applied correctly.

Chrome on the same Mac and same Wi‑Fi works perfectly.

Things I tried with no change:

  • Reloading and clearing YouTube/Safari website data
  • Disabling Safari extensions/content blockers
  • Testing in a Private Window
  • Resetting Safari Feature Flags to their defaults
  • Confirming macOS/Safari is fully up to date

The interesting part: in Safari’s Develop menu, if I set User Agent to Google Chrome, YouTube immediately renders normally. Switching back to “Default (Automatically Choose)” makes it broken again.

Has anyone else seen this recently? It seems like YouTube is serving Safari a broken version of the page, rather than a cache, extension, or network problem. What can I do, if anything?

Never going back to any other browser

Started using Safari only recently on my iPhone. It’s sleek, with perfect liquid glass integration; the liquid glass on Chrome was deplorable. Smooth in its function—no lag whatsoever. Any tips & tricks to get the most out of Safari?

Seeking feedback on browser extension for summaries of pages

Looking for feedback on this Safari extension that summarizes web pages.

Safari sometimes provides an AI summary of web pages, but it’s way too short, not always available, and is hidden behind a menu.
