Behodar: Ah, yes. I forgot about that. So IIS, and Geekzone itself, probably don't have anything to do with it.

 

Happens with other side going via Cloudflare. Not at all related to Geekzone.

Just had it happen twice in a row on macOS Safari on 2degrees UFB. I've not faced the issue with any other website.

Haven’t seen this since updating to iOS 26.5.1 🎉

Still continuing to experience regular issues with Geekzone when I browse to it for the first time in a session, but it can sometimes happen during the session, too. That is particularly annoying when you hit the reply button!

 

Happens on both 2degrees fibre and Spark cellular, so the only common factor is the Safari web browser on both iOS and macOS.

I'm still seeing it on that version.

 

I guess I can try .2

Can't you just use Firefox?

If it doesn't happen in Firefox (which is essentially reskinned Safari) then that'll be even more baffling. However, I haven't tried it, and since it's so intermittent it would be hard to test.

All web browsers in iOS is WebKit based.

 

It is not as simple as just use another web browser…

Seems like a good reason to upgrade away from vendor lock-in ;)

Oh the irony. I recently switched TO an iPhone.
The deals were too tempting. $1600 off of a phone over 36 months…
