Brave:\\flags Experimental Brave Flags


Description of the issue: You’ve supplied a bunch of experimental flags that have no description beyond describing them with the same description of the flag - worthless
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. brave:\\flags

  2. See how many you can honestly understand. The first rule of defining something is NOT to use the same words as what you’re describing.

Expected result:

Brave Version( check About Brave):

Additional Information:

The vast majority are straight from Chromium upstream.

They’re developer experimental flags, not end-user toggles. If they were meant for regular people to casually flip, they’d live in normal settings. The fact that you can reach them doesn’t mean they’re intended for you or that you should be touching them. They explain just well enough for the developers with the technical knowledge knows what they do.

All of them, actually.

@CityguyUSA, come have a seat. See, you have a history of acting like this. Your post history is not only consistently whiny, you honestly at times even complain about locked threads that aren’t even locked.

You also consistently ignore what’s said to you, chose to actively pretend NOTHING was said to you, and then keep making posts such as this.

This is beyond nonsense at this point, and I’m 99% you’re just a troll. There’s no way anyone can’t figure out what these flags are or how to research them. If you’re as smart as you seem to think you are, why haven’t you just…you know…Googled them? Seriously, let’s do one, shall we? I’ll even select some I’ve intentionally set because I know precisely what it is they do and how it works.

Come with me on an adventure to brave://flags where everything is even explained in the page itself.


It says it will use the Dawn backend by default. This seems simple. But let’s Google it!

Oh look, first result on Brave Search too.

Should I go on? I think I’ve done enough damage and may even be scolded for how I’m speaking to you, but my goodness do you need a slap of sense.

I got to the flags because someone told me I could fix something using one. Turned out that flag didn’t exist. I thought maybe it had gotten renamed or something but who would know. The point has been made.

There is also a list of what most of these flags do beneath the flag itself:

And then all the ones used by Chromium:

If there is a particular flag you’re curious about or not quite sure you understand, you can just ask what the flag does and we’ll do our best to assist.
