My Brave Browser keeps crashing each time I minimize the Window and open it back up:

My browser keeps crashing each time I click off the browser. I’ve dealt with this for months.

When I click the minimize button, which is the button that hides the browser into your taskbar and then open it back up again. It shows like a weird screen where its flickering with some colored boxes or something. Or it just shows an entire white screen. It starts to slow down dramatically until it says it crashes. I don’t know how to directly record myself minimizing the window to show it happening also. I do have recordings of it on the verge of crashing as i’ve described though.

While the issue I have doesn’t directly match what i’ve been enduring with this, i’ve seen some solutions saying that if they turn off hardware acceleration, then it would be fixed. However when I do that, it slows down a cellphone game I happen to play on the browser named Granblue, so doing that would be very problematic to me.

Actually I just found the issue that I was going through on another post and as they said, turning off hardware acceleration fixes this issues: Hardware acceleration issue - #5 by fanboynz

However I play a browser game on this browser, and without hardware acceleration, the game slows down. So the guy there must have not used his browser to do this kind of thing. I feel like that isn’t even really a “fix” but a workaround.
