Ctrl+F5

Yeah, too bad I'm using only mouse with the keyboard half to one meter away most of the time...

If it's a Javascript page then blame the devs of the page.

No, it's ALL pages, if you refresh using the middle mouse button (the wheel) so it opens in a new tab, it just loads the cached version instead of a new one on both Mozilla and Chrome for me... and on Mozilla only refresh button normally also gets the page from cache, so yeah, just annoying AF! I have to drag and drop the link to a new tab for it to reload the entire thing properly...

That's so stupid
The point of the refresh button is to reload the page from the server again to get new information and not load an older version
Maybe use an older version of the browser or a fork

Weird... yes, middle click tends to load it from the cache *on purpose*. It's muscle memory for me after all these years to just press F5.

As for the refresh button, I only have to use CTRL-F5 after changing profile pictures here, everything else works. The only thing which has issues is youtube and gmail.

Edit: I have 56.0b10, quite old

For me middle click is muscle memory because I've often had to deal with a page getting stuck when normal reloading because some pages that load badly cause Adobe Flash to take up HUGE amounts of memory freezing the thing so it's easier to just kill the page with all scripts and reload than just reload hoping it doesn't get stuck, then after years middle click habit has stayed...

There is a reason I'm using a specific version (b10). Newer versions have bugs which make it impossible to use. Constant crashes and freezes, and sometimes my open tabs just die. And also this is a new enough version so it seems to have the least of issues with Flash other than some performance problems.

i had to quit using firefox cause everytime i go on a site like gbatemp, i'd have to refresh everytime to actually update the site.

Yeah, I don't have an issue with that on 56.0b10, it works as expected, EVEN IF LOADED FROM CACHE. Though when it's loaded from the cache it takes ~1-2mins until I do get notifications.
