Confirmed Service worker causes empty pages on Chromium 143+

[Kirby]

Affected version

2.3.7

https://issues.chromium.org/issues/466790291

Until this is fixed in Chromium, it might be a good idea to implement the opt-out which seems to to avoid empty pages & user frustration.

This was happening few weeks ago. But I haven't noticed this in recent days.

External issue Thread 'Microsoft Edge White Screen'

Dec 9, 2025

I was told to report this bug here.

Some of my members use Microsoft Edge. In fact some have the link added to their task bar in Edge. Upon opening our forum the page is white unless refreshed, then it works. I did many things to try to fix this (all the usual) and nothing worked. I then checked the xenforo site and it does the same thing. I opened a ticked and we have concluded together that this is an Edge bug. Paul suggested perhaps xen programmers can do a work around for now. Hopefully this gets fixed soon,

Thanks
Jerry
