As the title says, I updated Firefox, tried searching something in the address bar which is set to search duckduckgo.com and the tab will pop open but get stuck with the loading wheel animation continually spinning. So I go to Google.com search duckduckgo and click on the link, same thing happens. Checked status websites for status of duckduckgo.com and all of them return the status “up and running.” So I’m at a loss for what to do.

    I would put money on it being DNS related. What do you have that messes with DNS in some way?
    Pi-hole
    AdGuard
    VPN
    uBlock or other extension

    Does it work on another browser on the same device? If yes, it’s probably extension or cache related. Disable extensions and restart the phone and try again.
