Safari 26 crashes on Sonoma: How to revert or fix the issue?

Apple provides an upgrade for Safari 26 on Sonoma but the problem is that it crashes 5x a day. I know the scratch answer for reverting Safari is that you have to downgrade the OS, but why can’t Apple either fix Safari or make the version I was running on Sonoma previously available? People will ask why I’m still running Sonoma and THIS is the reason. Apple wants you to upgrade but they don’t properly test the new versions (or purposely remove things without telling anyone), so upgrading only done if absolutely necessary.


Fix Safari.
