Description: Intuitive GNOME web browser
 Epiphany is a simple yet powerful GNOME web browser targeted at
 non-technical users. Its principles are simplicity and standards
 compliance.
 .
 Simplicity is achieved by a well designed user interface and reliance
 on external applications for performing external tasks (such as reading
 email). Simplicity does not mean less features; Epiphany has everything
 a modern web browser is expected to have.
 .
 Standards compliance is achieved on the HTML side by using the
 WebKitGTK+ rendering engine (which is based on the engine used by
 Apple Safari and Google Chrome); and on the user interface side by
 closely following the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines (HIG) and by
 close integration with the GNOME desktop.

How to reproduce (step by step):

1. Login in your user session using Wayland (default).
2. Install package epiphany-browser via apt. Or run, if it already installed.
3. Try to browse something. Make sure there will be nothing rendering on web pages.

Wanted result: web pages content presents.
Demonstrated result: no content at all.

4. Re-login your session via X-org.
5. Repeat steps 2-3.
6. Make shure, that all is normal under X-org session.

Probably this bug maybe depends on Wayland or X-org rendering differences.
For me, this bug is not critical.

P.S.
Using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Beta on Lenovo ThinkPad T590 (same model: https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=2bc1a5b44a#Host). Using internal Intel video device (not external Nvidia MX250).

Screenshot attached.
