Content blocker breaks Reddit on iOS

TitaniumOrigami

What happened? How did it happen? What are the steps to replicate the issue.
Whenever I go on Reddit using the Orion browser, I can not scroll down, click on links, or interface with anything except the back button (on the browser) to go back to my search. Using iphone 14 and an ipad mini gen 5 I believe.

What did you expect to happen? Describe the desired functionality.
To be able to scroll though the reddit page and click on links posted by users.

What version of Orion are you running?
1.3.4 (2)

This is caused by Orion's content blocker blocking the reddit cookie popup.
You can use reddit on iOS by temporarily disabling the content blocker, accepting the cookies, and then enabling it again.
A future update to Orion iOS should make the content blocker slightly less aggressive towards cookie banners as those sadly often break sites.

What happened? How did it happen? What are the steps to replicate the issue.
On Orion browser on my iPhone 12 Pro, there are some sites that loads at first glance, but then are completely frozen. I cannot scroll or interact with the sites at all and have to back out. Reddit.com is one such site that I have to change browser to use.

What did you expect to happen? Describe the desired functionality.
I would be able to interact with the site as usual.

What version of Orion are you running?

I had similar problems with clicking the login button on reddit and stuff. Not entirely sure what is happening. But some of the stuff also happens on Firefox, but surprisingly doesn't on Safari. Very strange. If I can reproduce I will add info.

I can’t scroll on Reddit.

What did you expect to happen? Describe the desired functionality.
Example site: https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/ydpd0o/is_ublock_origin_better_than_adguard_adblocker/

On Safari, you get a banner pop-up asking you if you want to use the Reddit app or continue on with the site version. Orion just doesn’t allow a scroll and no banner shows up.

What version of Orion are you running?
1.3.4

Reddit loads and then stops, a few seconds later, and the app becomes unresponsive.

Not freeze

Just disable content blockers for reddit.

It appears to be fixed; the "See Reddit in..." popup is no longer blocked by the content blocker

Emwi

Yes, it works now, great!
