i remember when setting up the phone it asked specifically if I wanted new instances to open in new windows but I can't find that setting again. I don't think it was PiP.

Did you ever get this figured out? Mine wasn't doing this until the last update my S22 had so it's been about a month or so. It's driving me crazy and running down my battery if I forget to close the tabs.

Got it dude, I'm on android what I done was go to settings/apps/Facebook turn off window in window setting. It's supposed to let you watch a vd while still scrolling fb. I've turned it off and seems to be good to go.
