Thanks so much for making this thread. I've been so frustrated with the Brave browser. I noticed that with updates over the past 2 years, it drastically got worse.

  • Loading new tab is no longer instant. I think it's because they don't pre-load the assets for their new fancy page. If you keep a new tab open somewhere, this fixes the problem.
  • Opening incognito takes a few seconds. Probably similar source of issue.
  • Sometimes pages take a while to load. Dunno if it's because of the in-browser blocker messing with DNS or something.
  • Minor thing, but I noticed that the video player on Crunchy Roll has issue where the pause button will distort the video.

I'm thinking of moving to another browser, but dunno which one yet. I never cared about BAT, so it was aggravating that Brave is introducing slowdowns that I was trying to avoid in the first place. At least it's still pretty good on Android. Hope it stays that way.

Have never experienced this at all, and I've been using brave for a very long time now.

That's very strange. I could actually observe the browser getting slower as I used it more.
It's possible that it only affects certain users, and the problems persisted because they couldn't be easily reproduced.

Eh. So that means I can never scour for things I browsed in case I need to look back.
Well, that's only happened once, so I guess I'll do it.

I'd like to give up an update.
I did clear my browsing history, but that didn't really make the difference.
However, I noticed yesterday that the new tabs now load instantly. Perhaps an update fixed it. Not seeing slowness with opening websites anymore either.
The Crunchy Roll issue is still there though. Not a surprise, considering that problem manifested at a different point.
