[Possible bug] Sharing a post to Firefox makes Voyager into Firefox, and I can't get back! (reddthat.com)

Picking a random post from the list of posts in Voyager and then using the share facility to share it to Firefox makes Voyager look like Firefox with the address bar and so on.

However, when I want to go back to using Voyager flicking back - partial right swipe on my Pixel 7 Pro w/Niagara launcher - doesn't do anything useful and I'm still in a version/instance of Firefox with the Voyager icon.

Can someone double check that this does/not happen to them to an up-to-date Android phone before I report it, please?

Thank-you in advance

UPDATE: looks like it is my end from your comments, thank-you people. I'm going back from whence I came, shame faced. 😳

I'm glad. Voyager is my Lemmy of choice!

Maybe it's Niagara. There's a couple of stability fixes coming through. So here's hoping! Meanwhile I have a reeducation class to attend! 🤣

Doing this also opens Firefox in Voyager here on A14. Going back via Androids navigation gestures works as expected (not sure if this is what you meant)

I am curious though, why would you share a post to Firefox when there's a dedicated button to open a posts link in your default browser?

It is.

Force of habit from using another long 'rested' random app that didn't have an easy way to open it in a browser. Share is my go to. Reeducation may be necessary.

Working as designed/expected here

Is this from the native app or PWA? Can you do a screen recording? Ty!
