I’m unable to log into Instagram using Brave Browser. It works fine on Chrome, but in Brave, I’m seeing errors in the Developer Console related to unsupported or unrecognized web features.  
**What I’ve Tried** :

- Disabling Brave Shields for Instagram.
- Clearing cache and cookies.
- Allowing all cookies and enabling JavaScript.
- Testing in Private Mode (Incognito).
- Creating a fresh Brave profile.
- Ensuring Brave is updated to the latest version.

**Expected Result** :  
I should be able to log in to Instagram without errors.

**Actual Result** :  
The login fails, and I see the above errors in the Console.  
Instagram works perfectly fine on Chrome. I suspect Brave’s privacy settings or lack of support for experimental features (like `attribution-reporting` and `shared-storage`) may be causing this issue.
