Brave Browser
1

Description of the issue:
When visiting Reddit.com, I notice that when I select an individual post, and then try to swipe back (two-finger swipe) in Brave, it doesn’t go back. I always have to manually click the back button.

Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3.

  1. Visit Reddit.com on a Mac running 10.14.5.
  2. Click on an individual article/post.
  3. Try to swipe back with two fingers.

Actual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):
Nothing happens and the user will remain on the same post.

Expected result:
I would expect to go back to the main Reddit forum that I was in.

Reproduces how often:
Every time.

Operating System and Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):
MacOS 10.14.5 and Brave v0.65.118

@nomoretor,
Thanks for reaching out.
On my end, swiping back or forward on Reddit performs as expected:

Can you tell me what your Shields settings are set to for reddit.com?

Good question! By default, my shields are up. If the shields are down, the swipe back is working. Would love to figure out what tracker or setting is in the overlap here.
