Description of the issue: When I hover my mouse cursor over a user on X, it no longer shows the small popup window that shows more information about the user. I’ve tried this with the Guest profile to verify it wasn’t my extensions messing with it. None of the other hover effects work as well like…

@user1641718407 Cursor stuck - not much of an issue at Chromium: https://issues.chromium.org/issues?q=status:open%20title:(cursor%20stuck) Brave, in the past, has placed a BB update on hold, for a big issue.
