Since installing the latest updates for Linux Mint yesterday or this morning, YouTube is acting super goofy via Brave Browser. I cannot search for anything at all. Nothing happens. Secondly, it is occasionally reporting that it is disconnected from the internet and to try again. Firefox works fine, however. I reported the issue to Brave, and have now communicated this with you to be certain everyone is aware.
I have some other stuff to discuss with you when you are available. I have information that you may find helpful and disturbing regarding Linux security. If you would like to discuss this, please reply.
My System:
Kernel: 5.4.0-155-generic x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v: 9.4.0 Desktop: Cinnamon 5.2.7 wm: muffin dm: LightDM Distro: Linux Mint 20.3 Una base: Ubuntu 20.04 focal
Thx for your report. FWIW, as you might not know this: the developers of the upstream Linux kernel are extremely unlikely to look into your report, as you apparently use a heavily modified vendor kernel -- and any of those changes might cause problems that are not present in the upstream kernel, hence it's up to the vendor to take care of supporting it, as explained here: https://linux-regtracking.leemhuis.info/post/frequent-reasons-why-linux-kern...
If you suspect this to be a regression that originates in the upstream kernel, please validate with vanilla kernels: first check if the latest version is also broken, then check if earlier ones worked; ideally bisect to find the change causing it.
Ciao, Thorsten
