I can confirm this under Windows 10 and Manjaro, both with 0.18.23 but issue is older and not related to brave version.
Shield down doesn't change anything.

It is stuck on this line on Brave:

indexeddb-local-backend.js?79bc:193 Removing indexeddb instance: matrix-js-sdk:riot-web-sync

[maciozo]

Just to confirm (and hopefully bump), I'm also getting this issue.

@jonathansampson is this issue related with API support or something?

[jdjkelly]

Also seeing this - nothing erroring in console.

Name Version
Brave 0.19.53

If you compare the console output vs. vanilla chromium (which loads successfully), it seems to halt after it logs this message: Removing indexeddb instance: matrix-js-sdk:riot-web-sync - how is Brave's indexeddb support?

[jonathansampson]

@jdjkelly Our indexeddb support should be on par with Chrome's. I am noticing that our devtools show the files being loaded over webpack://, which I don't see in Chrome. This could be nothing at all, or it could be a thread worth pulling. I know that we prevent indexeddb access from third-parties, so I'll have to look into whether or not there might be known issues with this particular case.

We could probably test this out by commenting-out a few lines of code, and seeing if the issue persists.

[NT7S]

I see the same behavior here.

I'd love to be able to use Brave as my primary browser, but I currently cannot because I use riot.im for my work. A resolution to this soon would be extremely helpful, thanks.

There seems to be a problem with IndexedDB. See issue #12463 where more context is presented.
