            Bug ID: 224685
           Summary: [GTK] Blurry images on various news websites
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: mcatanzaro at gnome.org
                CC: bugs-noreply at webkitgtk.org

Images are sometimes fuzzy and sad on various news websites, e.g. https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/22385612/plant-based-meat-milk-alternative-protein. To reproduce, you must open the link in a new tab and wait for the page to load in that tab. Don't switch to the new tab until the page is loaded. The image will be very blurry, but only if you wait for the page to load before visiting the new tab. So don't visit the page directly, because the bug won't happen if you do.

Good case: the image displayed is https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/7DKI3N1-Ra3UaohynBbgF0nXv1A=/0x0:5624x3621/1570x883/filters:focal(1050x760:1948x1658):format(webp)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/69136028/GettyImages_1183778224.0.jpg. Note the size 1050x760.

Bad case: the image displayed is https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/tIAt7KSHnXblaMYwWtmFhsu2Zbw=/0x0:5624x3621/320x180/filters:focal(1050x760:1948x1658):format(webp)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/69136028/GettyImages_1183778224.0.jpg. Note the size 320x180.

Because the issue does not occur when the page is loaded in an existing tab, I suspect we may be messing up the viewport size somehow.
