Blink looks like toggling between two viewport sizes.

This looks pretty bad.

For the time being, you can work around the issue by adding this line:

…
  let configuration = WKWebViewConfiguration()
+ configuration.defaultWebpagePreferences.preferredContentMode = .mobile

  webView = WKWebView(frame: view.bounds, configuration: configuration)
…
