Description of the issue:
I’m unable to see comments below the YouTube video when ad-block mode is on. Turning off Brave shields shows the comments again. I’ve give an example page but I’ve seen it happening on other pages too.
Exact URL of the website in question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2cFGL2OXb4
Did the issue present with default Shields settings? yes
Does the site function as expected when Shields are turned off? Yes
Does the site work as expected when using Chrome? Yes
Brave version (check About Brave): 1.89.141 Chromium: 147.0.7727.102 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Yea, I’ve been facing this issue for months actually (just never bothered to file a post about it). It seems to happen more on recently updated videos, as videos I find that have been uploaded months ago or longer, DO load comments, but new videos, almost never show their comments. You click on the Reply pull down, and it just disappears as if nothing is there (when there very much is).
I can 100% confirm this issue.
I can also say it oddly doesn’t affect every new video either, but some channels seem to be hit more than others.
For me it’s very suddenly started happening in the last couple of days, weirdly. Comments were displaying fine and now they seem to be gone on all videos unless I disable Brave shields.
