This seems to be a regression - first reported in OTRS: https://ticket.wikimedia.org/otrs/index.pl?Action=AgentTicketZoom;TicketID=9987589
Steps to reproduce
- Open an article while online
- Tap on a link preview in the article and select the overflow to "Open in a new tab"
- Long press on another link to "Open in a new tab"
- Wait 10secs then go into airplane mode
- Navigate to read the two articles opened in the new tabs
Expected
Both articles should have been loaded at the point "Open in a new tab" was selected and user should be able to read those cached articles
Actual
Articles were not loaded.
