My.tablotv.com not working on macOS 15.2

This behavior looks to be triggered by the Safari 18.2 update from December 11, 2024. The behavior is discussed by Jeff Johnson here: How Safari 18.2 https upgrade works.

On my computer, to reliably get to the insecure http://my.tablotv.com in a fully-updated macOS 15.2 with Safari 18.2 (20620.1.16.11.8) when experiencing @Jack_Palevich’s original symptom (the web URL flashes rapidly as it cycles through different URLs and the web page remains blank) is to:

  • Interrupt the repeated page load (“View” → “Stop” or Command-Period)
  • Edit the URL in the address bar from https://my.tablotv.com to http://my.tablotv.com and press Return to visit the site

It might help to add a Safari bookmark for http://my.tablotv.com, since my experience with the bookmark in place is that it seems keying in my.t will cause Safari to offer a “Top Hit” of the bookmark itself:

and pressing Return allows loading the insecure version of the site (which of course is different than Jeff Johnson’s experience).
