incognito mode is broken. Sites that worked in the previous version now report “too many redirects”
Version 1.73.89 Chromium: 131.0.6778.69 (Official Build) (64-bit)
The issue that you reported, sounds like: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS.
Sometimes, Cloudflare procedures are involved. Sometimes, Internet browser settings that cause an upgrade from HTTP to HTTPS are involved. Sometimes there is a bug in the website. Now, you report that Brave Browser Private Browsing mode may be involved.
General reference material/info that I have found:
Cloudflare Community Tip - Fixing ERR TOO MANY REDIRECTS
Those two links are to articles about, some reasons why the ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error alert occurs.
There was also a problem in the Google Chromium engine:
https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/5930084
for Chromium upgrade 130.0.6723.58 that is within Brave Browser upgade 1.71.114 and the later upgrade 1.71.118.
Chromium developers comments:
[M130] Revert “canvas: add NoAllocRedirect for canvas functions”
Original change’s description:
canvas: add NoAllocRedirect for canvas functions
This originally landed here:
https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/4247062
But there was a bug in v8 that led to the wrong thing happening.
The v8 bug has since been fixed.
Original cl description:
These functions may be called extensively, and don’t allocate.
What is “canvas?”
The HTML
<canvas>element is used to draw graphics on a web page.The HTML
<canvas>element is only a container for graphics. You must use a script to actually draw the graphics.Canvas has several methods for drawing paths, boxes, circles, text, and adding images.
Canvas is supported by all major browsers.
