macos – Safari turns into caught indefinitely when making an attempt to load some webpages

Roughly a month in the past, I seen that Safari on Mac began to turn into caught indefinitely when loading sure webpages. I will click on on a webpage, the progress bar does will get caught at roughly 50%, after which I’m not in a position to navigate on different open pages or open a brand new web page in a brand new window or tab. All turn into caught whereas loading. I’ve to give up Safari by navigating to Safari -> Stop Safari within the menu bar. If I re-open Safari and navigate to the identical webpage, it nearly at all times turns into caught once more. Therefore, there are some webpages I merely can’t go to.

I’ve seen that this at all times occurs when a webpage makes use of CloudFare connection verification, and typically when a webpage makes use of ReCapatcha (I can’t make posts on sister web site StackOverflow, for example, seemingly as a result of it makes an attempt to ask me to finish a ReCapatcha earlier than posting). This isn’t at all times the case, nonetheless.

I’ve tried:

1. Restarting my Mac by navigating to Apple -> Restart within the menu bar.
2. Clearing my historical past and cache by navigating to Historical past -> Clear Historical past within the menu bar.
3. Utilizing Erase All Content material and Settings in System Settings
4. Updating to the most recent model of macOS.
5. Turning off Personal Relay.
6. Turning on and off computerized proxy detection.

I’ve an M2 MacBook Air, 8GB of RAM, and I am working macOS Sonoma 14.6.1. I’ve no Safari extensions put in, and this drawback persists throughout completely different WiFi networks, however not throughout browsers. This may increasingly or will not be associated, nonetheless earlier than this began occurring I used to be often getting a “no house left on this gadget” message of some variety when making an attempt to open some pages, and likewise needed to give up safari to treatment this. This occurred no matter my quantity of RAM utilization, and whether or not I had just one webpage open in Safari or a number of webpages and a number of different functions.

I’ve tried contacting Apple help, nonetheless that they had no strategies past what I’ve already tried. The closest Apple Retailer is impractically far-off.
