Description of the issue:
I cannot sign into Twitch. They have stated that there are a few browsers that are supported, Brave isnât on the list and to reach out to devs of the browsers we wanna use.
Did the issue present with default Shields settings? (yes/no)
The issue persisted with shields down
Does the site function as expected when Shields are turned off?
The site is useable. I can watch streams but cannot sign in, cannot comment, cannot stream, earn points or add friends.
Is there a specific Shields configuration that causes the site to break? If so, tell us that configuration. (yes/no):
No
Does the site work as expected when using Chrome?
The site is useable. I can watch streams but cannot sign in, cannot comment, cannot stream, earn points or add friends. It works on Chrome. Iâve been using Microsoft Edge. Both work as normal and extensions work.
Brave version (check About Brave):
The brave version that I am using is v1.44.112.
Just a FYI, most places wonât âlistâ Brave. But that doesnât mean anything. It just means they havenât tested it themselves and didnât want to put it there. That said, if it works for Chrome you KNOW it will work for Brave. Thus Brave is supported.
I was wondering how Iâd access Guest mode. I am using windows and am having trouble finding that. I cleared cookies. Only thing I havenât done uninstall and reinstall brave. I really donât wanna do that. If needed I can.
Go to hamburger menu (the three lines) on the top right of your window. Youâll see Create a new profile and just under that is Open a guest window. So if you want Guest mode, youâd do Guest Window. Otherwise just create a second profile and use that.
Is there a keyboard shortcut? Fine if not.
Also, is there way to enable extensions for guest mode? I think you may have answered that with no but was just curious.
@some_man_tiks Private window (guest mode, as youâre calling it) and creating new profiles are generally a troubleshooting step. If youâre saying it works fine that way, then it means itâs likely you have an extension, cookie, or setting that is interfering. Iâd most likely assume itâs one of your extensions. So Iâd test by disabling them all and then going to Twitch first. If it works, then enable one at a time until you figure out which one is an issue.
