    Safari 16.0 will not load tabs in the background

    I've just upgraded to Safari 16.0 under OS 12.6, and the tabs have, once again, stopped loading in the background. I have a group of tabs that I click to load up all the URLs for the day. I want them all to load at once—not once I've actually clicked on any given tab.

    Gmail now has a recurring pop-up ad that asks you switch to Google Chrome—is there a setting/Safari extension I can use so that I never see it again?

    When I go to Gmail in Safari, a little pop-up ad appears in the upper right-hand corner saying something like "Switch your default browser to Chrome" and only has a Yes or No option—no "Never ask again" option.

    In-App Browsers, security

    There’s been a lot of talk about In-app Browsers recently especially with TikTok and Instagram, etc… One thing I’ve been wondering: How safe are In-App Browsers?

    As the titles says, anytime you open Safari after quitting opens a new empty window (unexpected behavior) along with all windows from previous session (expected behavior).

    3 and 4 keys doesn't work on YT in Safari only

    Hey, You can use 1, 2,...,9 (above letters) on YT to move quickly in the video. But I can't for 3 and 4 keys only. Yes, It's very specific. Is it a YT bug with Safari or a Safari bug? Because It works on Firefox and Chrome, so It's not a hardware issue. I have a 14" MBP M1 Pro. Thanks

    I have a brand new MacBook Pro 16 inch with M1 Pro chip and 32 GB of RAM. Whenever I work on safari my battery stats always show that it is using significant energy even if only a single tab is open. Is it normal or something I should be worried about?

    Bad UI in Safari's private/regular mode switch

    I believe there's a bad UI decision regarding the private/regular mode switch in Safari. This annoyed me since iOS 15 and I couldn't quite figure out why exactly. So since iOS 15 we have this UI There's no reason to have "Private" button while in private mode. It just does nothing and...
