Hello there, I want to mention that in Version 0.99.132-beta (WebKit 619.1.11.111.2) - which I'm currently using on my Mac M1 - The Guardian's website is not functioning and leads the browser to crash

Access the website

    Hey! Thank you for the report. If you have the time, could you test the following things:

    • Does the same crash happen on a fresh Orion profile (File -> Profiles -> New Profile...)?
    • What extensions do you have installed on your main profile?
    • Did the website work as expected on the previous Orion version? (Orion 0.99.131.0.2)

      Hi! Thanks for your response.

      1. On the new profile, same issue
      2. I have Dark Reader installed (only extension)
      3. I'm not sure about whether it worked on the previous Orion as I have just restarted using the browser after a while

        Gotcha. One more thing, if you enable compatibility mode for theguardian.com, does that change the outcome in any way?
        Since the tab is crashing, the easiest way to do this is via Orion settings -> Websites -> Compatibility Mode -> Add theguardian.com and set Compatibility mode to On

            Thank you for patience. Hopefully we'll have other community members chime in soon with their experiences.
            Here's how The Guardian's website behaves on my M1 MacBook Air.

              Orion 0.99.132-rc (WebKit 621.1.2.111.4), note the newer version of webkit than OP has, I do not have issues loading The Guardian either.
