_ **Security Reminder** _  
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.

Hi @peteski

It seems like you’re running into the same Safari specific issue that a couple of other users saw here a few months ago. You can check out this thread for some more details around this and how to resolve:

Hi Nick-B

I eventually found the cause of this problem. It got so bad I couldn’t access any websites.  
The problem is a Safari setting in version 18.3

Safari Settings, Security tab, they added a feature Non-secure site connections  
Turning this on is what caused all the problems.
