Browser totally broken nothing loads

so suddenly brave just stopped loading any web page it just keeps loading forever no error pages just an endless loop. i tried everything the other bowsers on pc work just fine i am on windows 10 . i tried to restart my pc i avoided restarting my pc because of an issue that isn’t related to brave that i can’t find a logical explanation for and it is annoying. i wish i didn’t do it since that issue is now back .but anyway i have no idea what is going on i want to ask some experts before i end up uninstalling useful things or doing other bad things. does anyone know what is causing this ?

update problem fixed i tried to update the browser but it said i was on the latest version. a minute later i tried going to random websites by manually typing in the url at first it didn’t work. but then suddenly it started working normally again and now it all just works .i don’t really understand what happened

another update the bug has returned once again same issues as before does anyone know what could be the cause of this ?

and yet another update seems like this bug now just happens randomly for short periods of a few minutes quite annoying but not quite as bad as before

I have the exact same issue on my mobile app

Fixed it by updating to latest version!

update the bug has returned does anyone have an explanation about this

I’m getting the same behavior: no web pages load, as of today, 5/1/24. Brave says it is updated to latest version. Other web browser works fine, this is on Windows desktop.

I just tried first going to a private window, that worked, so back on my normal window I turned off the UBlock Origin extension and now I can browse again. Could be coincidence, not sure.

I have had this exact issue twice, once a couple of months ago and again recently.
The first time it fixed itself after a day of waiting but restarting Brave, restarting computer didn’t work.
This time I tried opening a private window and disabling UBlock Origin like Aubrey suggested above and that worked. It seems Brave is having strange interactions with UBlock because it works just fine on other browsers.
