Brave browser freezes when doing Duolingo exercises. Reproducible. Sometimes only a momentary but most of the time is stays frozen. No mouse response. App switching doesn’t work. Haven’t seen this behavior in other sites.
@Qiset,
Thank you for reporting this.
Does the whole browser freeze or just the site? Additionally, can you get the site into a frozen state and then share a screenshot of the dev tools Console window so we can see any errors in the output?
The whole browser including the mouse freezes. I also found another site that caused this to happen too. I went to 8notes.com and while trying to look at sheet music, it froze. I’ll see about getting a screen shot of the console when it happens and post that. I was able to reboot the computer using the alt+prtscr+b but that was the only thing that worked that I could tell.
@Qiset,
First – awesome website (8notes) that I will now be frequenting so thanks for that!
Further, I’m able to use both Duolingo and 8notes websites without any issue. There is a chance that you have an extension installed that is causing the conflict with these websites – can you try disabling any extensions running and test to see if you get the same results? In addition, you can try:
It’s time to take Brave off the hook. I had this happen while using Firefox. I’m pretty sure that it is tied to my audio driver. Oh, I accidentally discovered that I can stop the issue in Brave by opening a second tab to work from leaving the opening tab alone. This seems weird to me but works as far as I can tell. I didn’t get a chance to test the “new profile” you mentioned but I suspect it would work similar to the second tab method I tried.
As a struggling new trombone player, 8notes is a great resource.
