What happened?

In Chrome,

1. Load this example: https://codesandbox.io/s/dw43f
2. Closely watch the particle area, refresh the page
3. The mask image briefly flickers into full opacity and then disappears

I tested in Chrome, Firefox, Brave - and it reproduces there as well. Also tried it with my own setup outside of CodeSandbox with NextJS.
