Ask HN: Does your Safari get this bug?
About a month ago I got this weird crash on Safari on my iPhone 6s. Everything was working fine. I was just searching on duckduckgo and all of a sudden I get this [0], [1]. "A problem repeatedly ocurred on $URL" Now all my safari tabs crashed. I hit refresh, I change the url. I go to any other website and it still shows the error.
Killing the app does not work. Maybe something to do with webkit ? The only thing that worked the first time was installing the latest iOS update (15.6), I had 14.x.something before.
Search engine: duckduckgo
But the problem is that this issue is very weird. Some apple forums said that disabling javascript would restore Safari. It kinda did.
The first time this happened, it did not work and as mentioned before, o ly a full software update worked.
But guess what ? This bug happened to me today. Which means it has nothing to do with the new ios 15 update. This means it is weirdly reproducible. I don't know what I did or how it happened but it happened again. And for some reason, now disabling javascript worked like a charm and them re-enabling it un-killed the bug. Why ? I don't know.
Also, does anyone know about how to go report this bug to Apple ?
Thanks
