dino combine this and defaults fix my 99.9% randomly freeze, render a page with some dislocation issue, and vertical tree bar unresponsive issue, really thanks ur work

    laiz Please check this video. It just happened. I can interact with the page, but it won't refresh the display. I need to go to another tab and then back to let it refresh.

        Recently on Version 0.99.127.2.2-rc (WebKit 619.1.1) I have had webapps open in a frozen/uninteractable state (Discord, ChatGPT) but relaunching the webapp has fixed that. I have not had webapps suddenly freeze/become unresponsive.

          Here's an instance with 0.99.127.2-rc on a Catalina system (MacBook Air/Intel Graphics):

          sample-of-orion-rc-web-content.txt
          92kB
          sample-of-orion-rc.txt
          116kB

          Note I could click on links in the tab but I couldn't scroll either with the trackpad or the scrollbar. Refreshing didn't help and I ended up just closing the window to continue my work.

            This issue is ruining the whole brosing experience and making it frustrating, as a user. I have to close and restart Orion multiple times a day since this bug happens very frequently (I would say an average of every 2 hours of use).
            Specifically, it won't let you load new tabs or reload currently opened tabs, which means you basically can not navigate.

            Fortunately, it looks like this is a known issue. I am still leaving a screen recording here to showcase the issue. The screen recording shows how Orion becomes unresponsive and won't let you navigate, and I am opening Safari and browsing on it to prove that this is not a connectivity issue.
            Whenever this happens, you have to close and restart Orion and most of the times you have to close-reopen repeatily, because it will still be unresponsive even after restarting.
            It took me multiple attempts at restarting Orion before being able to navigate to this site and being able to report the issue.

            As always, we trust the team and have no doubt this will be addressed swiftly. 🫡

            will try to apply the workarounds suggested by Vlad and dino ; will keep this comment updated if I still encounter issues.

                  Following my previous comment: unfortunately that did not completely solve the issue. I am still experiencing frozen / unresponsive tabs, I have recorded it and leaving the screen recording here so that you can get an idea of what's going on.

                      After a few days of using, latest RC seems to be smoother and didn't incounter this issue.
                      However, sometimes I am still experiencing unresponsive tab on sites like Discord and Youtube.
                      Did not report because it happens unpredictably and it's hard to recreate. Will try to collect more info about it as we go on and possibly provide a detailed report.
                      Thank you for your suggestion, Dino.

                        Hi after latest update I cannot comment or write on Reddit, the comment field is there but it won't allow me to use it or cannot. Is there something that I could change or do to make it work ?

                        The desired functionality is that I can comment and works smoothly !

                          Hi thank you I will follow the post I will try out some of the solution and see if some of them helps !

                              Merged 3 posts from Cant comment on Reddit .

                                Just had a tab freeze on Version 0.99.127.2.3-rc (WebKit 619.1.1) so whatever the cause is, it still isn't completely solved.

                                    Vlad unstickied the discussion .

                                      This issue unfortunately isn't fixed, I still get it in .3 – though it's possible that it is a different issue. Sometimes the website freezes directly on load, so that I can't scroll anymore. When pressing reload it suddenly jumps to where it should be, but it stays frozen after reloading.

                                      Happens really rarely so can't show steps to reproduce.

                                        No, it isn't fixed. I'm trying to reenable WebKit2UseRemoteLayerTreeDrawingArea to see if it fixes this problem.

                                        Update: It's Still not working. Open discord tabs still result in a high chance of freezes. Let me restart Orion and test it more on later.

                                          Vlad for my use for these days, arm developer online manual site also get some freezes, and GitHub code view page got some stutter, when freezes happens lots of tabs were opened but since last version when I do reset exp feature to default and disable remote layer tree they just works fine, in this version I tried both but nothing changed, so I guess bug just not fixed.
