You might want to open settings and then turn "HTTPS-Only Mode" off. Though if it has been a couple of years since you last tried, it's also not unlikely that most sites will just work now, if that was indeed the culprit.
(Also, if you're the type of person who dials all the privacy protections up to eleven, you might want to hold off on doing that until you've seen everything working just fine, so you know whether those options were the problem.)
Oh, and another thing you could try is going into the app settings in Android, then under Storage and cache tap "Clear storage" and "Clear cache" (or similar options in another place if you're on a different version of Android). This to ensure you didn't have old settings that were interfering.
