Unable to access Wikipedia


Wikipedia appears blank. I can’t read it, it’s all blank, or mostly blank because when you hover the mouse over it you can notice that there are some links that you can click on the page (you notice because the cursor becomes the hand symbol).

Exact URL of the website in question:

Did the issue present with default Shields settings? (yes/no)
Yes

Does the site function as expected when Shields are turned off?
No

Is there a specific Shields configuration that causes the site to break? If so, tell us that configuration. (yes/no):
No

Does the site work as expected when using Chrome?
Yes

Brave version (check About Brave):
v1.43.89

I’ve had the same issue for a few weeks now. Newish install (computer is a bit more than a month old now), everything worked fine initially, but suddenly all Wikipedia and StackOverflow pages render white on white. I cannot pinpoint any change that could have caused this.

I now have to copy-paste URLs into Edge to view these sites.

Windows 11, Nvidia with hardware acceleration, dark mode… Don’t know what else could be relevant? I do dip into the Developer Tools from time to time, but cannot recall any change there that could have affected rendering.
