Unbearable load circle

Hello,

I have a problem who is in fact driving me crazy each time i user a news tab.

The load circle on edge, many website load many things and this circle turn and wait to the website to be "loaded", but in fact now on internet many time, we see connection who never respond (ad block or tracking block), so this circle turn and turn even if i know the website is loaded.

And since the website is reactive it drive me nut to just see this circle turn again and again for nothing.

Please like Vivaldi does let us disable this circle before i finish totally crazy.

  • Hi, which version/channel?
    "..each time i user a news tab..."
    so you only see the loading icon on the new tab page? or what is news tab?

    and how does it happen on websites? instead of the favicon you see loading circle?

      yes actually the load circle who replace the favicon don't stop when a link don't respond, so on many websites (who assets are blocked), they will wait very long before the circle stop and it's very annoying.
      But since i know some user like it and work correctly i ask a way to disable this circle for those who want.
      The new tab is when is edge://newtab when he load some thing from msn, my AdGuard intercept some link so time out and circle load indefinitely, for a local webpage it's annoying to see circle load non stop on many tab.

        I use ublock origin, it blocks lots of stuff on websites but never causes that problem. maybe the problem is adguard.
