For some reason, when I open a link on another app, the browser just stays on a blank screen. The loading bar doesn't even appear. I tried to do Open in Firefox, but it does the same thing, and it even makes it so any time I try to go to another tab or try to go to a different website immediately after, it gets stuck on the blank screen as well. I had to force close the app and reopen it to fix it. I don't know if it's a firewall issue or incompatibility.

Hi

To clarify, you are opening a link in another app, that link opens in Firefox, but you are getting a blank screen?

Yes. I initially open the link in a separate app. In this case, it was Twitter.

This issue isn't limited to Twitter redirects. It happens consistently anytime an app redirects to a different website, and I don't know why this happens!
