"An error occurred." YouTube Brave error still ongoing as of August 2026.

I have tried a bunch of solutions and still am getting this error, and it's been happening for the past week, actually. I even tried switching off Shields and trying uBlock Origin but it didn't change anything.

Anyone else experiencing poor quality on YouTube?

Brave is truly amazing in all areas except yt. Any help would be much appreciated as I do not want to go back to yt.

Can anyone assist?

I obviously clicked “allow” somewhere accidentally. And now i keep getting the “aisync” fake malware warnings on every tab for every search. The issue is not replicated on safari. I’m on ios and have no idea how to get them to stop. I can’t find it anywhere in brave settings. Can anyone help?

Reposted: had an image before of the warning, but i don’t think Reddit liked it.

Brave Desktop suddenly became very slow and laggy

I use Brave as my primary desktop browser, and it used to be very smooth and snappy. But recently, starting this week, it suddenly started to lag a lot more. For example:

  • When I open a new tab, then switch back to the previous tab, there will be a 2-3 second delay where the entire browser freezes before changing tabs.
  • When I load a new webpage and immediately start scrolling, there will be a noticeable input lag delay and the scroll won't happen until 3-5 seconds later.
  • When clicking on a link that opens additional content within the same page (for example "See more" on Facebook or clicking into a thread on Reddit), Brave will freeze for a few seconds before loading the additional content.
  • After opening a tab and then trying to type into the search bar of the website in the new tab, Brave freezes and there's a long delay before the word I typed appear in the search bar.
  • Scrolling in general is very laggy and unpredictable. I'll be scrolling for a while and then suddenly it will freeze or delay for a few seconds before scrolling again.

I'm not sure why there's such a noticeable performance drop recently, especially since I have a pretty decent PC (Ryzen 5700X3D, 32GB RAM, RTX 4070 Super). Has anyone else been experiencing heavy lag and stutter on desktop? How do I fix it?

What's happening here...

I have my music through my browser but YouTube is acting all weird. Why is quick picks showing like that when I minimize the window. I can't see other music suggestions behind it.

I've cleared cache in Brave and force stopped it. Any other ideas? TIA!

Youtube Music not working on Brave

I've always used YT on brave, but as of today, I can't pick a song from the homepage after having another one playing. Does anyone know how to solve it?? Btw my phone is Android

What happens with brave (android)?

It doesn't work anymore, any page works if i put the "block scripts" thing, and that's the actual addblocker cause the other configurations keep the adds.

I don't know what to do anymore
