I'm not entirely sure what's causing it but it's not just links, you can't interact with anything on the page including search boxes. It's as if it froze but you just can't interact with it in any way. I have to open a new tab because even refreshing the page doesn't fix it.

Tabs become unresponsive on Orion 127.2
Merged 6 posts from Unclickable links on website.
Cmd + W (Close Window) doesn't work either when it freezes
I will say that I have not had this issue in a while, so I don't know that changed.
I have this issue too, with only clicks and hover effects not working, but scrolling and keyboard input works
Likely related settings:
Open external links in Preview (hold * to open in new tab) disabled

can someone please share more details about current issue (and a recorded video if possible), like
- Is page scrolling works?
- what if you switch to other window or tabs?
- can you navigate the page using keyboard?
- can you navigate back/forward?
- is back/forward navigation gesture working?
- is page zooming working?
- what if you toggle compatibility mode?
- is the issue reproducible on clean profile?

on Sonoma 14.1.2,
I had this happen on one site yesterday. (tab type is vertical. or is the question something else?)
- other tabs worked
- close the tab and open the same site in a new tab, then it was ok
- Edited
dino When I had the issue, I could scroll, I could change tabs and everything would work normally, but changing back left the same behavior. I could open a new tab and everything would be ok. I also only ever had it happen on Google. Nothing else ever did it. Compatiblity mode did nothing, neither did refreshing the page in any way. I don't remember about the rest of it.
- scrolling works
- switching to other tabs / windows work fine, but switching back to the frozen tag again doesn't unfreeze it
- i can navigate using keyboard
- back / forward navigation works, but the previous page will also be frozen
- zooming works
- compatibility mode doesn't solve the issue
- Edited
If page scrolling works?
Scrolling works as expected.
what if you switch to other window or tabs?
Other tabs and windows work as expected. Switching to another tab and back does not fix the issue.
can you navigate the page using keyboard?
Yes, navigating with spacebar and arrow keys works as expected.
can you navigate back/forward?
Yes.
is page zooming working?
Yes.
what if you toggle compatibility mode?
This does not solve the issue. Once a tab is in the semi-unresponsive state, toggling compatibility mode on reloads the tab as expected but the tab remains in an unresponsive state.
is the issue reproducible on clean profile?
Still working on this. I have noticed that the tab is frozen when I switch back to it. Perhaps someone can use this to find a reliable way of reproducing this issue.
Additional information:
text cannot be selected, right clicking does not open the context menu

Is page scrolling works?
Not really? If I scroll, the changes are rendered only after I change the tabs back and forth
what if you switch to other window or tabs?
It renders if I switch back
can you navigate the page using keyboard?
Nothing changes there, so, no?
can you navigate back/forward?
No, both arrows are disabled (not sure if it's a fresh tab or not)
is back/forward navigation gesture working?
Yes
what if you toggle compatibility mode?
It reloads the page but the stuff is still inaccessible.
is the issue reproducible on clean profile?
Dunno haven't checked as this happens randomly.
Got that thing on Twitch:
- The video container works
- the video plays
- cursor disappears when it goes over the video container
- the chat gets updated
- Pressing spaces seems to be doing both pausing/resuming the video and scrolling the page at the same time(?)
same/similar issue here: changing the focus, i.e. a simple click on the desktop followed by switching back to the browser temporarily fixes the issue whenever it happens.

It happened just now! And I got some memory samples for you! (And wow we have a really complex call graph

By the way, my experience with the bug is basically the same as Haarolean's.
Are there any estimates for this issue? I'm at the point where my current installation doesn't work due to tabs freezing consntantly and I can't even downgrade due to previous version constantly crashing.
I've seen unclickable tax happen on Twitter.
New info: Inspector opened from the developer menu seems to work. I can't click on the page, but I can click on the inspector.
Had an Orion WebApp freeze like this for the first time.
- Create a webapp for Discord
- Launch it
- While the Discord loading animation plays, resize the window
- Step 3 has a good chance of resulting in the webapp being in a frozen state. This, however, was not 100% consistent.
New info: Using the accessibility inspector from Xcode, I can interact with the window. In this screenshot, I open a context menu.
