Bugsquad note: This issue has been confirmed several times already. No need to confirm it further.

Godot version

3.5.1, 3.4.5

System information

macOS Monterey 12.6.1, Safari 16.1

Issue description

Since the update to Safari 16.1 on macOS (Macbook Pro early 2015, macOS 12.6.1), every Godot HTML5 export (GLES2 and GLES3) crashes on loading, even empty projects with no settings changed.

It looks exactly like in the video in this report: #62445 and might be a similar issue. I can not check it on iOS as I don't have a device capable of running the latest version.

This basically prevents any Godot game from running on a Mac with the latest Safari version.

Steps to reproduce

• Export anything to HTML5
• run in Safari 16.1 on macOS
• crashes on load

Minimal reproduction project

any project, even empty (main scene with one Node2D)

Update: same happens with Gnome Web version 43.0, which also uses the WebKit rendering engine.

I can confirm this, all Godot web builds crash with Safari Browser 16.1

If anyone knows how to fix this, please tell as this is very detrimental to any web game made with Godot.

Same here with Godot 4 and the latest beta. Working fine on windows/linux web browser.
