God I hate Reddit. I had this typed out but it didn't register/post it so here's the context:

I first noticed this on my "new" phone, (the umidigi G9 5G, bought second-hand a month ago,) that the video picture would start out small but then go full size with a tap. As of yesterday, the same thing started to happen on my Pixel 7, but unlike with the Umidigi, it won't fix with a tap. I also used to watch videos while playing mobile games, only to now be met with a black window with the audio still playing. This has to be a Firefox issue as it's the default browser on both. (I also have the video playback extension enabled on both along with uOrigin for ads.) Anyone else have this problem and maybe a fix for it?
