    Why can't I whitelist Safari during Downtime?

    This is so stupid. I really am baffled at Apple's software decisions nowadays. To try and cut down my night time phone usage, I've enabled Downtime, so that I can restrict apps usage (mainly social media) and make sure I can wind down and get ready for sleep easier than before. Yeah, all great...

    Intermittent issue - web pages don't load

    I have a 2019 MacBook Pro running Monterey. Every so often when I enter a URL or click on a link the progress bar stalls and the page doesn't load in Safari. It just seems hung up. When this happens, Firefox is similarly affected. Testing internet speed shows that is not the problem. Generally...

    I've used Safari since it was first invented and never had any major problems with it. Now I have a few work sites that deny my logins on safari but work fine on Chrome and a number of other sites the page ever loads at all in Safari and is instant on Chrome. I don't get it.

    Safari ... Why?

    Why is Safari always acting as the worst Browsers ... Look at that ugly red bar not being in its place & borders not being there. I am honestly trying to be more for Apple but there is always some silly thing that just pushes me away.
