Hi there! I understand that videos on Odysee won't load and the page becomes unresponsive on both your Windows laptop (using WebKit) and your Android phone. Let's work together to resolve this.

To start, could you tell me:
- Are you accessing Odysee via a web browser on both devices?
- If so, which browsers are you using? (For example, Safari, Chrome, etc.)
- Have you tried clearing your browser cache and cookies already?
- Do you notice this issue only with certain videos or all videos on Odysee?
- Do other streaming sites work fine on your devices?

Meanwhile, I’ll walk you through common steps that often fix this kind of problem:

1. Clear browser cache and cookies: Old cached data can cause loading issues. On your Windows WebKit browser, you can usually clear cache via the settings menu under "Privacy" or "History." On Android, go to your browser’s settings > Privacy > Clear browsing data.

2. Disable browser extensions/add-ons: Sometimes extensions interfere with video playback. Temporarily disable them and reload Odysee.

3. Ensure JavaScript is enabled: Odysee needs JavaScript to load videos properly.

4. Check your network connection: Confirm you have a stable internet connection. Restart your router if needed.

5. Try opening Odysee in a different browser: See if the problem persists in another browser on your laptop or phone.

6. Update your browsers and device OS: Running the latest versions can resolve compatibility problems.

If after these steps videos still won’t load and pages freeze, it’s helpful to check if the issue might be related to Odysee’s platform itself or specific to your environment. Sometimes a network error or codec issue causes video playback to fail.

Please let me know what you’ve already tried and your answers to the questions above so I can provide you with the best next steps!
