Yes, I know.  That's where I set up all the items you mentioned:
Javascript enabled, Cookies enabled, DOM storage enabled, Form data
enabled (but I get the same result with Form data set to system
default), user agent: Privacy Browser.  Everything else is system default.

The menu I mention above, the one that is giving me trouble by hiding
everything under it is the FreedomBox menu.  Shouldn't tapping the
little square to the top right with 3 horizontal lines, collapse the
menu that's permanently down?  It doesn't.  All it does is make the
border thicker.  Tapping on it after that does nothing, not even
restoring the border to thin lines.  Privacy browser is version 3.17,
version code 73.

It doesn't need additional stuff, does it? I have stopped/disabled
everything google and a lot of other stuff I don't need.
