In normal usage, not leaving Orion, not having the computer sleep, etc**, ...

tabs frequently (many times a day) and quickly (sometimes within a minute of opening) go blank - and the address bar is often also blank. I often can get the contents back using the tab history back arrow.

This has been happening for months, across multiple OS and Orion versions. Maybe happens more with google docs than anything else?

Currently on Version 0.99.127.3-beta (WebKit 619.1.1).

    wsmwk Never had this, and first time I hear about it. Likely an extension. Do you have steps to reproduce from a clean new orion profile?

      Currently experiencing this behaviour on 0.99.129-beta and Sequoia 15.1.1 (M1 MacBook Air).

      Happens mostly with sites from my univeristy like D2L and some web forms. Page will, without warning, while still open, just go blank along with the address bar and require refreshing by right clicking the tab. This wouldn't be a dealbreaker if it weren't for the fact that I've lost many half-completed forms to this bug. I really love orion and want to keep using it but this behaviour makes me think I may have to swtich.

      I'm only using extensions from "Popular Extensions," namely:

      Better Twitter (2.1.3) (Set to only run on twitter/X)
      Bitwarden (Firefox 2024.11.2)
      Consent-O-Matic (Chrome 1.1.3)
      Google Translate (Chrome 2.0.16)
      Honey (Firefox 12.8.4)
      Reddit Enhancement Suite (5.24.7)
      SponsorBlock (Firefox 5.10.1) (Set to only run on youtube)
      uBlock Origin (Firefox 1.61.2)

      Here's my debug info. Hopefully we can work out a fix.

      • Vlad replied to this.

        Finn Likely cause could be the extensions you use. Try with a clean new Orion profile with no extensions and see if th eproblem persists.

        • Finn replied to this.

          Vlad The extensions I use are all from the official "popular extensions" tab, shouldn't they be functional?

          • Vlad replied to this.

            Finn They should but we cann't check every extension every time it updates.
