It get stuck on the loading animation, but the actual HTML isn’t even there yet. Only refreshing makes the page load. Happens mainly in Google.
This is probably related to a known issue. Links to an active topic and the Brave GitHub issue report below. According to the comments, the fix is currently released in Nightly and hopefully will be released for the stable version soon.

## Description
It appears that we have a good number of users reporting that the browsers load times have slowed to a crawl, if sites load at all. There don't appear to be many common threads between reports other than that. There are several reports that I will continue to add to this issue as I dig them up. One user left a recording of the behavior (shown here: https://youtu.be/KW0dPinJKBo).
So far, we've seen that:
- A couple users seem to have better results after using switching to Shields v1 (via flag), but this does not resolve the issue for all users
- Un/reinstalling resolves the issue temporarily but after a while the issue returns
- Disabling FPP did not resolve the issue
- Disabling HWA did not resolve the issue
- Clearing cache for site(s) resolves the issue temporarily (for some users) but the issue persists after a while
