 * so recently I’ve used this theme and edited the font family’s for a site I’m 
   building for myself, things happened and I’ve had to remake the site several 
   times because of other unrelated issues.
 * Before I would go into the stylesheet and edit everything like fonts opacity 
   and colors just fine. Now the major issue is the Stylesheet editor is completely
   unresponsive; when I click “Update File” the browser takes a long time to load
   before saying “the webpage is unavailable.”
 * It even does this when I don’t even change anything
 * please someone help

 * How come you’re not utilising the Child Theme plugin that you’re using?

 * Try deactivating all plugins to explore whether any could be responsible.
