Brave browser hangs while loading different sites

In the following settings and illustrations, some of the settings are temporarily set for difficult website connections involving a Sign-In. IF temporary, I’ll note that: (temporary).

At: brave://settings/security:

  • DISABLE: Always use secure connections (‘HTTPS Only’ toggle switch) (temporary)
  • DISABLE: Use secure DNS

I use Brave Shields v1; and, at: brave://settings/shields

  • DISABLE: Auto-redirect AMP pages (always)
  • DISABLE: Prevent sites from fingerprinting me based on my language preferences (temporary)
  • Trackers & ads blocking: Standard (temporary - usually Aggressive)
  • Enable: Upgrade connections to HTTPS (‘HTTPS Everywhere’ toggle switch) (always)
  • DISABLE: Block scripts (temporary - usually ENABLED)
  • Block fingerprinting (aka Fingerprinting blocking): STANDARD (temporary - usually Strict)
