**Description of the issue:**

After the last update of Brave Web Browser, my pinned top sites vanished into thin air. So after resetting to what I wanted a pinned top site will randomly vanish when opening a new tab.

**How can this issue be reproduced?**

1. Pin all available top site slots
2. Navigate to and site
3. Open a new tab by clicking the new tab button next to the currently open tab

**Expected result:**

This even seems to only occur when all top site slots are filled and pinned.

**Brave Version( check `About Brave`):**  
[Version 1.13.82 Chromium: 85.0.4183.83 (Official Build) (64-bit)](https://brave.com/latest/)

**Additional Information:**

OS: Linux Mint Cinnamon 19.3  
CPU: AMD Rysen 5 4 cores with 8 threads  
RAM: 16GB

Update, this problem is continuing and getting worse. Pinned topsites keep vanishing after clicking on them. This is getting annoying and is unacceptable.

Yes, I did get a reply from one of the Dev’s on Github. There’s three of them working on the issue and I was sent a link to track it but must have deleted it because I can’t find it. However, I know they are working on it. That’s good enough for me right now, as an aspiring developer my self I know that these things do take time to work out. They are aware of the problem though.
