The loadindChanged signal has been deprecated for over a year,
unfortunately it wasn’t made explicit (by means of a warning printed
out on console) until very recently.
You want to use the the loadingStateChanged signal instead:

 WebView {
  onLoadingStateChanged: console.log("loading value:", loading)
 }
