I see the same behaviour on my X10 III.

Edit: It’s indeed not a regression as it doesn’t work on 4.4 either.

I noticed this. Switching to desktop view solves the problem.

Yes, they (Amazon) seem to change something since i experienced that Problem first time weeks ago.
Maybe a Update of the SailfishBrowser-Core above ESR78 will help?

Amazon crashes the browser often … I just tested with amazon.de and, after crashing once, I’m scrolling through lists and looking at individual items with no issue. I wonder if the host matters? Doesn’t make sense, but, it’s amazon!

The mobile view is also working now. But i don’t know why, because there were no updates for the browser in the meantime.

So what makes this website so special that it deserving of an official bug report tracked by Jolla, while reports like Browser is blocked by Akamai and Cloudflare and (jolla browser) Sites that aren't working get ignored for months and months?

That’s a good question, i guess the fact that it’s the most used store on the planet

I would say anyway that since this just stopped working maybe it was just a regression, while other sites just require an engine update, which should come at some point

Anyway, since i am the creator of the other post (sites that aren’t working) i really hope to see everything solved, of course…
