I'm running macOS 13 public beta on an M1 Mac Mini on a fresh partition. I opened safari and went to twitch.tv. Not 5 seconds later, "Safari is not responding".
I reported the bug. Not sure what else to do now except yell at clouds, I guess. Anybody else running the beta, please report this if you can reproduce. I'm gonna go and have a drink. Here's hoping my Logic Pro test later today is a little more successful.

VO restart helps
Hey,
VO restart helps for the bug you describe. However I have one more annoying thing with Safari, sometimes the webpage just vanishes, leaving me only with toolbar and the scrollbar. Can you repro that?
didn't it use to say safari busy
we all know it was a vo problem. so now it says safari not responding, makes you think it's a safari problem in general, not a vo specific problem. maybe apple thinks that would make us feel better?
well, when it said safari is not responding, i took a picture of the screen and OCR it, the page loaded just fine. so safari was responding just fine, vo was not responding is more like it.
Hope this won't take ages…
Hope this won't take ages from Apple to fix, and not to be so pessimistic here but Apple has made it clear that accessibility is not a priority at this time
History - At least four years
A little searching found this post from 2018, but as we all know, the problem became much worse with the release of Safari v15 in September 2021. The "busy busy busy" message was replaced with " is not responding" later in 2021.
I had strong hopes that Ventura would finally drive a stake through this bug's heart. Sad to hear that's not the case. Maybe in the next release.
Changing the text from "busy busy busy" to "not responding" shows that Apple is aware of the issue. It must be quite a bug to remain unresolved for four years.
using browsers other than Safari helps
I've been using brave on Ventura and no issues here.
Safari is definitely still awful though.
