Comment (by sajolida):

 I'm also severly affected by that as I work on the Tails website from
 Tails itself: I build a local copy of the website and test my changes on
 file:// before pushing them on the production website.

 But I have a workaround for now which is to fallback on Firefox ESR for
 browsing file:// URLs.

 I also noticed that the links between pages are broken as well: clicking
 on them as no effect.

 To test this, if you have access to Tails, you can browse the embedded
 version of our website:

 file:///usr/share/doc/tails/website/index.en.html

 Otherwise, save your favorite web page locally (Right-click on the page
 and **Save Page As**) and open it back with Tor Browser (Ctrl+O and open
 the page that you saved).

 In both cases these pages will appear as raw HTML with no CSS, images, or
 JS and broken links.
