I'm using Mull from F-Droid. The image (or thumbnails, I don't know how to call it) of the Highlight and Reels on Instagram are not showed. I've tried Firefox and it's working OK.

Please try one of the workarounds: https://divestos.org/pages/broken#mull

such as

Mull has stripped referrers. This often breaks loading of images on websites with hotlink protection. Navigate to about:config and change network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy from 2 to 1, this is however a privacy risk.

Thanks SkewedZeppelin. I've tried all those workaround with no success, included the one you mentioned. However, decreasing network.http.referer.XOriginPolicy to 0 worked here. Not sure if that represents any critical privacy vulnerability.

Thanks again!
