@nfkn17 This was due to an adblock filter issue. It was resolved fairly quickly. You shouldn’t be having issues. If you are, go update everything at brave://components

Thanks for trying some troubleshooting. In the future, try to think of the three usual suspects and attempt.

  1. Disabling Shields

  2. Trying in private window (which you did)

  3. Create a new browser profile

Often can identify most issues just in those three basic troubleshooting steps.

I thought I did include that i had tried a new profile, and that also did not work.
the solution is that Brave applied a bad list and removing and re adding easy cookie seems to have fixed it. thanks for the suggestions !
I did go back to brave but if it breaks again, i will have to go back to EvilGoogle.
