Happened to me yesterday through a link off here. I was already expecting it given the domain, but usually mashing back fast enough does the trick eventually. Not this time. Had to kill the tab.

In most browsers you can hold the back button for a second and it will let you skip back more than one step.

Probably should have mentioned it, but I was on my phone browser where that option either doesn't exist or isn't surfaced well. A long press on the back button just does the same thing as tapping once, so I'm all out of ideas.

You can right-click on the back button in Firefox to see a list of previous sites to go back to.

		Yeah, it’s the same feature, just two different gestures. (And long tap works with Firefox on Android, btw.)

And some websites consume the entire history that a browser displays in that menu

		Has definitely happened to me. Especially if I try the "click back a couple times quickly" method first.
