Also, check task manager for Brave processes after you close it. For some reason, especially when using tor windows, brave likes to have 10-30 processes still going after it "closes." Once you reopen it, it won't even load a new tor window until you force kill those processes. Usually killing the one sucking the most memory will kill the rest of the child processes, but occasionally you have to play task manager whack-a-mole to close them all. It's does this around 50% of the time I use it, on both my laptops, but maybe its just me.

Fucking chrome based browsers.

I was gonna say... chrome based. But if there's a bunch of processes left, and they won't gracefully close, taskkill might be easier than killing them individually.

taskkill /f /im brave.exe

I tend to be a bit liberal in my use of hyperbole. The whack-a-mole isn't that bad. Its quicker to kill the three 100-300MB+ processes in task manager than opening a prompt. That always kills all the child processes. Its always one of the ones using 100MB+ of memory, in my experience. I've got plenty of RAM and pretty beefy processors, so I usually don't even notice that they're stuck until I go to check the farms and it doesn't want to open a new tor window, but I've started to open task manager when I close Brave on occasion. It seems to happen more on my newer laptop, but that's probably because I use it the most. The old one is currently relegated to surfing while sitting on my patio or deck, since we're onionated currently and I think Tor works like dogshit on my tablets.
 
I've having it fail to load a lot of the time on Tor today, page time outs that won't go through despite several refreshes for a while, and then it's ok for a bit, then it goes on the fritz again...
 
how difficult would it be to change the "like button" to have a "more..." button besides it that pops up the extended likes menu instead of trying to open a new page?

And if wishes were fishes, can we get some more like types like "troon alert?"

Brave Tor seems not to work currently.
Same with Orbot on mobile.
 
I can't find them now but it was about 10 minutes before MATI when he was discussing it stating that the log file filled the hard drives for tor and that due to how tor works a full reboot was required to fix it. Also, the only way to fix our own route was to restart the tor clients.
 
What was that hiccup? Is it something caused by a third party that could be intentional?
 
Teaching people how to use Tor was great. Even @WogglebugLover got onboard with it. Can we have our clearnet access and associated ability to view screenshots back now?
 
Null said on MATI yesterday that the morning hiccup was that some of the servers' log files had filled up all the hard drives.

I have wondered about someone "poisoning the well" wrt Tor routing to Kiwi, but I think it's just Tor is an underdeveloped piece of shit. Or maybe some exit nodes are running netshield or something else stupid, and that's slowing everything else down.
 
For some reason, when I try to log in via email(I have two step verification) the access code won't send. So I'm forced to rely on backup codes. Can a staff member look into this please?
