It looks like this is purely a compatibility issue between the website and Brave or any browser that isn’t Edge or Chrome. I get the same error in Firefox and Safari, but Opera seems to work which is strange because I would expect Brave to work as well in this instance. I’ve pinged a couple team members to take a look and see what we can do on our end.
