Brave getting bad

[tox]

Hello,

Im am using Brave for several years now.
But now I am thinking about changing to another browser. The simple reason is that with every (automatic) update Brave is getting worse and worse.
Last annoying “features”: Display of “Tabs” in the upper line. If you have many open tabs, this only takes place and I can’t imagine what this is good for.
And what’s the sense that now you can’t edit the content of the input line any more?
Maybe there are commands to inhibit this behaviour, but seems to me they are not communicated.

Greetings,
Bjoern

Description of the issue:

Exact URL of the website in question:

Did the issue present with default Shields settings? (yes/no)

Does the site function as expected when Shields are turned off?

Is there a specific Shields configuration that causes the site to break? If so, tell us that configuration. (yes/no):

Does the site work as expected when using Chrome?

Brave version (check About Brave):

this is no website or shield specific problem.
If you touch the adress line, it’s content disappears, you can’t edit.

The edit button on the popup ist just one more step to get to edit mode. This is no improvement, this is worse.

And yes, chrome behaves the same way. But I don’t use chrome, I use brave.

And in chrome I don’t find the annoying “Tab” display.

The edit button on the popup ist just one more step to get to edit mode. This is no improvement, this is worse.

We have an issue opened for this here:

Tapping in the address bar clears the URL and makes it harder to edit an address

@tox

And in chrome I don’t find the annoying “Tab” display.

Not sure what you’re referring to here, can you please elaborate or share a screenshot of what you’re seeing?
