Weird Redirects?

In addition to the cut/paste issue that came back in the latest build, I've noticed another weird issue that I can't replicate reliably.

 

In normal use of the browser, I click on a link on a page (any page, could be Google search, could be some content page with a link) and I am taken to a page somewhere altogether unrelated.  If I go back (back arrow) and try again, it works properly.

 

At first I thought this was just me spazzing out, but then it began to happen again randomly.  Now when I am reading webpages or shopping online and I go to some totally unexpected target page after a first click, I just know it's Edge.  It's like the address isn't getting resolved at the DNS server properly.  Has anything like this ever been reported before?

 

This is running Edge Dev within a Debian container on ChromeOS.  This has never happened on my Win10 machine, neither has the cut/paste issue.
