Endless loading screen on Android 16 with Chromium browsers #2034

Describe the bug

I encountered this problem the first time when I tried to use this docker container jlesage/docker-jdownloader-2
It uses noVNC to provide a GUI view of JDownloader 2.
This worked flawlessly and I was able to use every browser on PC and on Android until I recently changed my phone (OnePlus 13).
Now I have the most recent Android version 16, but can't use noVNC on any Chromium browser. They won't get past the loading screen.
Gecko browser still seem to work as expected.

While researching this issue I found your demo at https://novnc.com/noVNC/vnc.html, which showed the same behaviour. So I don't think the docker container is causing this.


To reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Use a chromium based browser on Android 16.
  2. Go to noVNC Demo
  3. See the endless loading screen

Expected behavior

I would expect to see the noVNC logo and controls after some seconds.
(On my Android 10 device, Huawei P30 Pro, it works just like that.)
