        Try opening the Firefox debug console and looking at the network connections/timing while doing that.

          As you can see the result is missing css

            It looks like you have a an adblocker and it's blocking the css file along with all the actual ads.

                @stephenw10 I've asked the VPN provider and waiting for an answer but I don't think that will be the problem since im using google dns and the same issues happens if I use another Wireguard VPN. I'm guessing its some kind of wireguard problem

                  Do you have IPv6 enabled and working?

                      @Tueem I just confirmed, it's definitely not the VPNs fault. I booted up a quick instance of OpenWrt and there having my server routed through the VPN works fine.

                        Interesting. I have similar issues with the same addresses 13.x.x.x and pfSense when I use a specific PPPoE connection, but the problem only arises when I use IPv6, which I also obtain via DHCP. Interestingly, everything works fine without pfSense in the loop. There must be something in pfSense itself, and in my case, IPv6 is just the trigger.

                          Hmm, but you're not actually using IPv6 to reach it? And also over Wireguard?

                            I just wanted to throw in, that OpenVPN also works fine so I'm 99% sure there is something wrong with the wireguard plugin.

                              No wireguard in my case. Now I use PPPoE only for IPv4 and HE GIF for the IPv6 testing and fallback. No problem with 13.x.x.x based sites currently, but I did not tested all of them.
                              I honestly don't understand what the relation to IPv6 is at all if packet capture shows that the connection is going through the IPv4 stack. I would be sure that it's some configuration error either from the provider's side or somewhere else on my end, but in fact, everything works directly, without pfSense.
