I have posted about uncontrollably jumping bookmarks in Brave before, but sadly there seems to be no solution to this. AI generated answers and suggestions doesn´t help either.
Now, this is very annoying and time consuming to deal with, and it’s sad because Brave was the best browser until this bug came some three months ago.
It’s the same whether I use win 10, win 11 or Linux.
Wish somebody at Brave would like to take a look at this.

To me this sounds potentially like the work of an extension you have installed. On my end, on macOS, Linux and Win11 I do not see the behavior you describe.
If you could share a shot screen recording of the behavior you’re seeing it would be very helpful.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I have now made a short film (10 mb) on the problem I have. Where can I send it?
Alex63
You should be able to upload it here on the site or you can upload it to somewhere like imgur and share the link here.

Thanks, I’ve got huge problems with converting my film from .wmv to a .mp4 file…This might take a while…
I believe imgur accepts wmv files if you don’t want to go through the hassle of converting it.

Oh shoot… “Sorry, new users can´t post files” was what I got when I finally succeeded in converting the film to .mp4…
Sorry about that – I made the change on my end and you should now be able to upload it.

Nope, no cigar… still the same message.
Apologies – try one more time for me.

Yes! Success! Hope you can understand what happens on the screen, the resolution is not the best.
It looks very similar to this issue which was opened a while ago:

bug
feature/bookmarks
OS/Desktop
## Description
When you have a large list of bookmarks (such that you have t… o scroll down to view them all), if you:
- Delete a bookmark from the long list, the page will automatically jump to the top from where you are in the list
- Move a bookmark by dragging it from the list into another folder, the page jumps to the top of the list
This can be frustrating for users trying to organize a long list of bookmarks, since jumping to the top of the page every time causes them to lose their place in the list. Behavior should be that after each/any action, users position in the list/on the page should stay the same.
## Steps to Reproduce
You must have a long list of bookmarks — long enough force you to scroll to view them all.
1. `Settings --> Bookmarks`
2. Scroll down a long list of bookmarks and right-click to delete one of them
3. Observe page jumps to top of list
4. Repeat process for dragging a bookmark from long list to a new folder
## Reproduces how often:
Every time
## Brave version (brave://version info)

## Miscellaneous Information:
User reported this and also reported that this behavior will happen if you navigate away from the Bookmark manager page. However, I am unable to reproduce this particular part of the issue:

Can you please confirm the browser version you’re using at this time?

Thanks for your reply.
My browser version is 1.80.120
@Alex63 curious to know if you see the same behavior if you try to scroll down/view bookmarks on the brave://bookmarks/ page as well?

No, I don´t. That seems to work fine.
