(Reporter: matthew, Unassigned)

Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:65.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/65.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Set firefox as default browser on Android Pie running on Moto X4 A1 version.
  2. Install uBlock Origin as an addon (best reason to use Firefox on Android, biggest technical selling point to friends)
  3. Reboot and DO NOT open firefox app
  4. Use feedly/boost/reddit sync to open a weblink in a "powered by firefox" window

Actual results:

  1. "powered by firefox" window hangs on page load, with loading bar about 1cm long. URL appears correct at top.

  2. If the firefox app has been foreground recently (<1min? not exact) then "powered by firefox" window works

Expected results:

  1. "powered by firefox" window should have loaded website, even with addon installed.

Should be fixed in the near future.
