Very often unable to access the DevForum with Fenix

For the past 1/2 months I have very often been unable to access the DevForum using Fenix (Firefox for Android). When trying to connect the page gets stuck on loading like if the request never receives a response from the server.

This does not seem to be a Fenix bug as I have cleared the cache and also force stopped the application multiple times and it didn’t fix the problem.

This issue does not happen on any other website.

Environment:
Fenix 112.1.0 (Build #2015944787)
Android 11 - OxygenOS 11.0.12

Could be this be due to a request timeout? The DevForum first-load times are so long that some browsers entirely drop the request due to a timeout.

The problem is that opening the devforum in a new tab or reloading the page doesn’t help and sometimes even returns an “Unable to complete the request” error so it is never possible to access the page even after the first request. But if the request goes through once it works until you close the browser.

Does this issue happen on other Discourse forums, such as meta.discourse.org, for you?

No, it only happens on this forum.

As a followup, I’ve noticed this only happens when you’re logged in.
