Thanks for the report.

I was indeed able to reproduce the issue. The page content is not loading.

Tested with:
Browser / Version: Firefox Preview Nightly 200405 (🦎: 76.0a1-20200403063228), Chrome Mobile 80.0.3987.162
Operating System: Huawei P10 (Android 9.0) - 1080 x 1920 pixels (~432 ppi pixel density)

This is the web page displayed in Firefox Nightly:

And this is the web page displayed in Chrome:

Moving the issue to needsdiagnosis.

This seems like a tracking protection issue. If I disable protections, the page loads (even in Desktop).

@wisniewskit is this a known issue? Can you file a bug if not?

This does look like the same issue with tracking protection blocking third-party access to Reddit here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1621888

That is, if Firefore Preview is set to standard ETP rather than strict, then the page loads fine. So I'll mark this as a dupe.
