Many times, new tabs open disfunctional. Sometimes, there is no addresse bar. Sometimes, there is an addresse bar, but not pages load. The tab is black, sometimes.with a big brave logo. When that happens, the rest of the open tabs don’t work any more either. Only force closing brave resolves the issue.
That is an android 14, HyperOS. Latest Brave version from play store.
The issue has been going on for half a year now.
Re-installing Brave has not helped.
