Hi.
When I go to github.com with Web (Epiphany) version 43.1+, the page just stays blank and a lot of CPU is used.
I'm on ArtixLinux and the version of webkit installed is 2.38.5-1.
Thanks to fix this issue.

The problem is caused by "navigator.clipboard" missing. As a dirty workaround, I’ve used "navigator.clipboard = {}" in Epiphany’s custom JS file (available in Epiphany’s options).

Note that since yesterday, some features of GitHub don’t work anymore with Epiphany (applying labels on issues is another one), and many errors are reported in the inspector. Looks like GitHub decided to drop support of many browsers…
