Unable to open Firefox as external browser

Hello! I'd like to report a problem where I cannot open Firefox when opening links from apps like Facebook or Reddit. I've already set Firefox as my phone's default browser app. My phone is a Oneplus Ace 3 running on ColorOs 15. This didn't happen when the phone was on ColorOs 14 and I've tested Google Chrome which still works on ColorOs 15 so I suspect it's an application issue.
