Browser-laptop: Reddit does not render when use Brave Browser

Created on 3 Apr 2016 · 12Comments · Source: brave/browser-laptop

I just installed Brave and while searching the web I notice that Reddit doesn't render. I tried other sites(EPSN,CNN,Github) and they all render prefectly fine.

Step to Reproduce

Download and Install Brave v0.37.3
Navigate to the search bar and go to Reddit.com

Reddit is rendering fine for me. Perhaps this was an intermittent problem? Could you try again?

fine for me as well. Try the latest version.

Update: Oops I see you were asking @Hellaphant75.

I have this issue as well. If you have Bravery set to replace or block ads, Javascript from Facebook.com, Reddit.com and even parts of gmail.com aren`t executed thus the wrong rendering.

Funny Thing is. I have this issues under Ubuntu 15.10 @home. Win 10 @work is just fine. Both using latest Brave

sounds like some people have a corrupted tracking protection or adblock list.

I tried the .tar.bz and the .deb version. I have this issue on both.
I don't have the requirements to try building from source right now =(

I'm going to uninstall and reinstall Brave now. I'll let you guys know what happens. And thanks for the advice.

Just chiming in here, running Brave: 0.8.3 on Ubuntu 14.04 and having the same trouble with reddit when bravery is set to replace or block ads. Yandex.com is also affected.

Reporting the same sort of behaviour with Brave 0.8.3 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - this only occurs when Bravery is set to either Replace or Block Ads

I am using Brave 0.9.1 and don't have these problems anymore. Reddit and yandex seems to be working fine.

It'd be useful if someone can confirm if they still have this problem with 0.9.
If you do please let me know the file size of your:
~/Library/Application\ Support/Brave/ABPFilterParserData.dat file on OSX, or
%appData%\brave\ABPFilterParserData.dat file on Windows
