Comment:

 I just tried that url, and then did a 'new circuit for this site' request,
 and its view of me changed.

 So, it all looks fine and good to me.

 Perhaps you are misunderstanding how Tor Browser's circuit isolation
 works? It isolates across circuits based on first-party, i.e. the domain
 in the address bar. So if you have two tabs each going to the same first
 party, they will share the same circuit.

 But then, you say you tried new identity, which will probably change your
 exit relay. (I say 'probably' because it might change it and then select
 the same one the next time.) So I am not sure what to guess about what is
 going wrong for you.
