I'm on a very flaky connection right now. When I am using a tab and my connection is lost, I get a page that has a 'try again' button, when my connection returns and I press that button it doesn't work more often than not, even hit cmd+l then enter (to reload the page) or cmd+r does not work. I am forced to do the following, cmd+l, cmd+c, cmd+t, cmd+v, enter, and that always works.

I can confirm that this happens to me every other day. When the connection is lost, sometimes I need to open a new window entirely to make this work, and in some cases even restart Firefox completely.

Opening a console and trying to fetch the page I get this:

await fetch("https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffsb&q=test", {
    "credentials": "include",
    "headers": {
        "User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:84.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/84.0",
        "Accept": "text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8",…
