I’m not sure what it is, but I’ve removed all the extensions and played with “blocking trackers for Safari trying to fix this. Safari on my iPhone has become unusable to the point where any new tab takes 30+ seconds to “resolve DNS” or start loading. It’s not DNS though. It’s a new behavior introduced in the last few months.
Installed Chrome and it works flawlessly.
I’m just annoyed there isn’t a way to troubleshoot or fix safari without having to wipe and restore.
Maybe a question for #askatp #askatpfm @atpfm

@jonschwenn Maybe Chrome is using Google’s 8.8.8.8 etc. DNS and Safari is using the system-configured DNS?

@jonschwenn my wife’s iPhone does this also. I initially thought it was ad blocking on my network but happens on cell and WiFi. I’ve tried various DNS resolvers, ad blocking extensions, etc. haven’t gotten to the point of purging cache data. Same as you saw, Chrome/Firefox no issue. That was her accepted solution.
