Clicking on a link on the Post view is slow to open inside browser

Whenever I click on a link in the Post view, Boost takes up to 5 seconds to load up the page up in Firefox. Post view is set to "compact," but I tried others like "Cards 2.0" and "Cards".

I have "Open externally" set in the General -> Default browser settings. I set it to "internal browser," but that made no difference.

Firefox is set as my default browser. I then set the default browser to Vivaldi but that made no difference.

I used other Lemmy clients, and there were no delays.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I'm using version 1.0.12 on Android.

5 seconds? Sometimes 30!

It's been irritating me for a while, but I assumed it was because I'm using Firefox Android.

I'm also using Firefox on Android. I have uBlock Origin extension installed.

Same for me. I notice that if I click the direct link it opens much faster, but still a little lag. Clicking the thumbnail always causes a 5 second or so delay.
