      Plugin for youtube user submissions. Probably unrelated.

        Any non-default/custom uBO filters/lists that could cause it...?
        I'm using Opera with uBO, never seen that "loading ring" on this forum.

            You are using a local proxy for all traffic. Maybe it doesn't support websocket secure (wss)?

              Even disabling uBO is not fixing it for me.

                  Stop using the proxy and see if it stops happening?

                    Fair. I have the feeling, testing this is not that easy, the problem is gone.
                    I am using Dante socks proxy. If anyone has a recommendation for an alternative socksv5 proxy, please let me know. I am not able to make an exception just for this forum from the proxy, how this is setup in Firefox.

                      Wrong. I can make one and will and this should fix it for me. Thanks @stephenw10 !! 🤝
