Facebook and Twitter impacted by container #821

Twitter has been misbehaving for a few days. It refuses to load any content, except a logo and a "try again" button. Facebook loads some of its header bar, but halts and shows a popup informing the user that "this request cannot be completed". This behaviour began today.

Instagram fails to load when navigating directly to a userpage, however loads normally if the homepage is navigated to first. This behaviour has persisted for a few weeks.

I can confirm that Facebook and Instagram both spawn container tabs. Twitter does not (and would not be expected to).

This behaviour continues with the most recent update (2.3.1). I currently use Firefox 74. This behaviour persists over Windows and Linux. I run Fedora 31, and Windows 7 in a VM. This behaviour persists irrespective of the enabled or disabled status of other addons. Those other addons include:

Additionally, this behavious persists when a new profile is created, and container is the only installed addon.

Actual behavior

Twitter, Facebook, fail to load content at all. Instagram loads, but only if navigated in a particular series of steps

Expected behavior

All three sites should load normally.

Steps to reproduce

1: Navigate to any of the three sites. When navigating to Instagram, use a hyperlink directly to a profile.

It ruined a lot of sites for me and all pages are loading after 30-60 seconds, catastrophic program. Removed the program I still have the sites messed up. Does anybody on how to get off this POS and all modifications did or I have to go back to Chrome or Opera!?
