Changing to Ads and trackers = Standard should help.

Google doc clipboard issues

before i try to turn off shields for the first time for this site …brave showed 4 items were blocked… after i turn off shields… google doc site seem to work properly but like you said, while i tried to activate and see if it makes any difference by turning shield back to on… it doesnt block anything and shows 0 items are blocked… [dczcadsc] this seems to issue with shields … i should wait for update… thanks

Already set to standard. Also doesn’t work with “shields down”

Also experiencing this issue with Brave on Windows. Turning off shields doesn’t fix it at all. I’m not only having this cursor issue, but also the overall formatting in Google Docs (as well as Google Slides) is all messed up and not formatting text correctly. This all works without any issues on my mac running Brave.

Would be another issue. Unless it’s another issue, try in private mode (or many test in a new profile)!

Open in both google docs, and open in via drive.
Via google docs directly:
