i have no problems accessing firefish and pixelfed using other browsers (duckduckgo and firefox) but i cant access the same servers using safari.
i uninstalled the adblocker and followed the suggestions (clear cache, refresh) but the problem persists.
in pixelfed, the page is blank. in firefish, an error page shows up (linked image).
im interested in trying their pwas, that is why im attempting to access them using safari.
(i hope i did not miss anything obvious).

    It could be the content blocker is active, something that is standard on Safari now. When you go to a website, click on the Aa button on the address bar, you should see it in the list.

    Hope that helps.

      thanks for the suggestion. i tried it but did not work. they work well with non-native browsers anyway so ill just stay with ddg for now.

    I also use Safari for Firefish and Pixelfed and I have no problem with them, maybe is an ad blocker or an extension causing the problem

    Click the aA on the left of the address bar and click turn off content blockers. If that fixes it you have a safari extension causing it.

      thank for the suggestion. i tried it. unfortunately, it does not solve the problem. will stick to ddg in the meantime; so no pwas for now.

      unfortunately, i dont have iOS 16 so cant use the official Pixelfed beta. been accesing pixelfed via browser (ddg) and it works great. cant access it in safari though.

        Interesting. I hope they figure it out. I tried the Instagram import and I have too many photos in my archive so nothing about PixelFed is working for me yet.
