Startpage has a policy that rejects connections if they're not via HTTPS. It looks like the secure protocol was established, for whatever reason, and thus the error.

It works fine on my Android FF



I figured it out, SafeSearch via NextDNS was the culprit!
I had to add startpage.com to my allowlist
