Displays a dark grey page.
Expected results:
Should have displayed the content on the screen.
More info:
I deleted the history, cache, cookies etc and problem still there.
I tried running Firefox in safe mode but problem still there.
I changed browser privacy from custom to standard, but problem still there.
I try home pages or subpages, and problem still there.
A funny thing happens when I refresh or load the page on the Github docs pages website: the content of the page splashes up on to the screen for a split second and then goes back to blank.
These two mentioned websites worked fine on Firefox 88.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Widget: Cocoa' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

I ended up doing a fresh install of Firefox 89.0.2 and the problem is no longer present.
The only reason I can think of for this original problem to happen is that some Firefox files got damaged when I downloaded Firefox 89.0.2 and went to install it without closing Firefox 88. I got a dialog box pop up and tell me to close Firefox, so I did, but perhaps the damage was already done. That is the only explanation I can come up with for this original problem to arise.
