Safari won't play Rumble videos

Since the most recent Mac OS update Safari will not play videos on Rumble. I don't know about any other platforms because I haven't checked, but if it won't play videos, your security update has a serious flaw. Please fix it ASAP.

iMac 27″ 5K, macOS 13.6

Apple does not read here in this user-to-user forum for feedback or suggestions. You can, however, let them know your thoughts here:


Product Feedback - Apple


Meanwhile, perhaps try another browser.

MacOS 10.14 Mojave and ios12 same issues. Not only Rumble but other web sites using high security. Tokens which authenticate I am finding missing is one issue.

Told it is because Apple bundles Safari in OS’s and does not update Safari after about 3 years leaving unsuspecting users, suddenly and without notice, without access ie locked out.

Apple spent 10+ years, hundreds millions $$$ force Microsoft to unbundle their browsers.

Suggest notice to Apple. Unbundle Safari El Capitan and ios10 to current with systems updates to assure same level of compatibility as Windows back to June 25, 2012 Windows. Stop obsoleting good hardware with OS software coding, after 5-7 years’ forcing to buy new.

Thank you but Apple has not listened in 15 years. Few months ago Fidelity stopped working. Now Schwab stopped working. Noticed other apps on phone require newer iOS. No reason for that other than just because...

It is going to take Congress like our 1951 Chevy, to keep hardware running and stop obsoleting. If it weren’t for Congress your 5 year old vehicle would be rusting in the back yard. Time to stop the Mac graveyard in back yard too.

Apple seems to be listing pretty closely to the feedback people submit. The fixed the issue with text tones in less than a month.


There may be something else going on here. I have no problems accessing Fidelity and TIAA with Safari in Sonoma. I also have no problems with my bank or with any of my credit card accounts. I don't have Schwab and prefer to read my news rather than watch it therefore I can't comment on Schwab or Rumble. So, I don't know what to tell you.


Again, perhaps try another browser.

Exactly “latest” OS’s. Not ios12/MacOS 10.14 Mojave (iMac new from Apple Jun 2021)

MacOS 10.14 Mojave and Ios12.4.1

Unable to use Fidelity, Schwab, others for long time. Free and open internet means my 1951 Chevy, can still put gas in, can still drive the old clunker. Not the best but ****, it still works. 

Time for free and open “access” to internet. Unbundling Safari from OS’s. Stop Apple from obsoleting 5 year old hardware (cars). Maintain code which does not lock out users from internet via coding html, JS Console, obsoleting tokens, removing tokens (ie prohibit gas in 1951 Chevy) and writing code which identifies older operating systems to prohibit installation (like towing away the old clunker because you drove it on the road).

Your original post said "Since the most recent Mac OS update" so, I'm sorry but I thought you meant the latest version.

No software/hardware company will support older hardware and software forever. It's not going to happen. You may want it to but you will be disappointed.


You may want to see if another browser will work. I've heard good things about Brave.
