Description of the issue:
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Log into Reddit

  2. Brave drops the ball on multiple levels (see details below)

Expected result:

Brave allows post submission when clicking the “post/submit" button. Reddit notifications page loads correctly on first access.

Brave Version( check About Brave):

Brave is up to date

Brave 1.84.141 (Official Build) (arm64)

Chromium: 142.0.7444.176

Additional Information:

Go to my Notifications page, it just gives me the logo. If I reload the page, it sometimes loads correctly. Sometimes, I have to reload a couple of times.

If I try to create a post or submit a comment, the “post” button spins forever. If I reload, the page reloads empty, and when I try to resubmit the text, it still gives me the spinner of doom. Same if I try to SAVE DRAFT. Spinner of doom.

This happens regardless of whether I have shields up or down. However, if I open a private window, it works as expected.

Looking at a quick search of r/brave_browser indicates that I’m probably not alone in my heartburn.

@gvantass means it’s cookies or extensions. I use Reddit on a very regular basis and have no issues. Highly suggest you check with extensions disabled and/or clear cookies for all time and then test.
