Action Performed:

Break down in numbered steps

1. Go to staging dot on web chrome
2. Create a new workspace and create a room with public mode
3. Click on room header and click on share code and copy the URL
4. Now open a new window and first make sure that on that window, you're are logged out of all the staging and new Expensify accounts
5. Paste the link on a new tab and notice that the screen freezes on that point. I remember, it used to show the chat room and used to ask users to sign in previously. But now, it is stuck at the same point. Since it's a public room, it should have shown the chat room or anything.

Expected Result:

Creating a new room with public mode should either show the chat room on the screen when pasting the URL or if not, then it should show an error

Actual Result:

Creating a new room with public mode freezes on the screen when pasted the URL
