Brave has significant ideological issues, including its ties to cryptocurrency and that it replaces ads on sites with their own ads. And in the past they’ve done things like misusing their autocomplete to try to direct users to affiliates. Not to mention that it’s still Chromium under the hood, like basically every other major browser except Firefox.
Login works for me in Brave perfectly fine, try just disabling the Brave shields for the website instead, it fixes like 95% of any website functionality issues.
That’s not a Brave specific issue; I’ve seen it frequently on Chrome (desktop) and on Safari (mobile). In particular, I’ve observed it when attempting to post a comment; usually when that happens I need to copy out my comment content, reload the page, paste the content back in and hit the Reply button again.
I don’t know for certain, but I’m guessing the cause has something to do with the Lemmy servers being overtaxed due to “Rexxit” related increased user activity. Of course, if that guess is correct, I’m afraid we can only anticipate the problem getting worse over the next several days.

It’s also run by crypto shills, and they got caught editing URLs to be referral links (!) a while back.
I’m on brave but for lemmy I have to switch to another browser. Cannot login on lemmy with brave (the button is looping indefinitely)
