Clearing Leo data turns Leo back on again

I have identified a bug whereby the ‘Show Leo in sidebar’ option is reset to ‘enabled’ after clearing Leo AI data in Settings!

There is no obvious reason as to why this should happen, it was a conscious decision to re-enable a settings that a user had expressly disabled.

I found this as I had turned it off and cleared the data yesterday, only to find that Brave had re-enabled the option “FOR ME” in it’s ‘wisdom’ (i.e. my preference DIDN’T stick.)

This is worrying. How many other feature auto-enable mechanisms are there in Brave which users are NOT being told about? What else got turned on/off when I click buttons?? O_o

I don’t understand why your team made that choice, since it breaks what the user has set.

What a user chooses shouldn’t be disregarded AT ANY POINT. If there is a conflict the user SHOULD BE ASKED TO CONFIRM AND BE TOLD WHY.

This is yet another development red flag for me.

That’s 3 so far, Brave, in one week… :confused:
