Same experience with FF 107.0 on linux an 107.2.0 on android. Site does not load correctly, massive CPU load, reload icon wildly flickering.
Edit: happens only (in my case), when Browser Privacy is set to "Strict".

The problem is related to "Tracking content" @ privacy settings.
When enabled the problem appears.

I guess the problem is forced by 20min.ch, because they don't care privacy and other browsers like Chrome also don't care.
I hope there will be a nice chicken walk solution from Firefox! Anyway, Firefox is still the best browser out there (for so many reasons!) and I am using Firefox since ~2003. Still have no idea why people use Chrome or so.

Thank you for reporting this issue, I was able to reproduce it on both Firefox Release and Nightly with Standard ETP.
I've created a bugzilla report for this issue: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1805155

Closing this as moved.
