The Template for an New / Original Post, at:
https://community.brave.com/c/support-and-troubleshooting/web-compatibility/77
has an introductory paragraph:
plus the malformed (“the any text”) sentence that you mention:
Delete the any text above the line separator below before posting*
Yes, that should be fixed.
While the Template for posting a Brave Support > Web Compatibility issue, only asks you to report the Brave Browser version, I much prefer that all of the following, are included:
- Brave Browser version numbers
- Computing device
- Operating System version numbers
Regarding “there’s an ‘X’ everywhere” . . .
Tabs include an ‘X’ for closing, if you wish.
One issue that you report:
Click the first “X” ( WHICH ? first X ) Oops ! Brave shuts down !!!
That sounds like a Crash!
How do I manually submit crash reports?

After you click the “Send Now” button, return to brave://crashes
and gather up the Crash ID numbers. Post the numbers, here, in a new reply.
Regarding your issue with Google > Gmail:
According to GOOGLE, I must switch my Gmail to “another” secure browser.
Sequential screenshots of what you encounter, there, will be helpful. (Thanks in advance.)
