That bug:
@cpeterso cpeterso closed this as completed Jan 30, 2023

But it wasn't really completed, the comment before that redirects to a
different bug tracker:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1788530

Opened 31 August 2022, confirmed, and still open. Last comment was about
a month ago. The Guardian is still broken for me.

The underlying bug is now S2 so you may be lucky.

What version of Fenix/Focus are you using?

118.2.0 (Android). Been a long time since I ran nightlies.
