I've built firefox from source, and I'm having issues accessing some websites with it

Using firefox built from source on Linux

It seems to be affecting mostly twitter (https://twitter.com/) Typing in the address bar or clicking links causes nothing to happen (nothing specials logged to the terminal, dev console shows no new requests). Oddly it works opening such links in a private window. I tried "Restart with Addons Disabled" but it doesn't fix it.

Well, it looks like bug 1621301. Could you clear the cache and cookies for the affected websites?
