Brave keeps crashing when opening a new tab

Brave keeps crashing for absolutely no reason:
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Open a new tab or search something
    2.RAM consumption is over the roof

Expected result:

Brave Version( check About Brave): 1.52.130

Additional Information:

I shared (using Brave feature) the crash reports

So does Brave open at all for you ?
Also, if brave opens for you when you don’t open a new tab, could you go to brave://flags and disable flags any flags called ‘brave news’

@ciberboy,
We have this template here on Community so that you can include as much information to help us as possible and less questions need to be asked to troubleshoot the issue.

  • What version of Windows are you running at this time?
  • Do you have any extensions installed? If so, which ones and does disabling them change the behavior at all?
  • You stated that the issue can be reproduce by first “opening a tab or search or something” — can you please be more specific about the exact behavior that causes the issue?
  • Did this issue just start or did you only recently download the browser?
  • If you launch brave and go to Settings (for example) does the browser crash?
  • If you sent your crash reports, can you please provide the crash report IDs for us here so we can take a look?

I found what is the issue, but do not know how to resolve it. I added a new news feed (www.sapo.pt) and that is making the browser crash. I change the the new tab page to a blank page, browser works fine.

How can I remove this news feed from the configuration files?

Found the solution.

Go to brave://flags/ and disable “Enable Brave News V2”:

Then go to the dashboard, and disable the news feed causing the issue. In my case it was Sapo.pt
