Can't sign in with the Brave browser #2026

Open adefaria opened 1 year ago

adefaria commented 1 year ago

Describe the Bug

Can't sign in with the Brave browser. When I try I get

{"message":"Cannot POST /login","error":"Not Found","statusCode":404}

Initially, I couldn't create an account because the captcha wouldn't display. So I created a user using Firefox where the captcha would display. I checked and I can log in with Firefox or with Chrome. But I can't with Brave.

Speaking of users, I kinda expected to be able to hook this to my actual Google account so I can get all my subscriptions and watched videos, etc. Is there a way to do that? Or is it planned to be implemented?

Steps to Reproduce the Bug

Try to log in with Brave. It fails.

Expected Behaviour

I expected to get in like I can with Firefox or Chrome.

Device Info

Same problem here on Firefox 115.0 (64-bit), Fedora 38. Can’t login or register – I can access the login and register sites, but attempt to submit always leads to this:

{
      "statusCode": 404,
      "message": "Cannot POST /login",
      "error": "Not Found"
}

On the regular instance, this happens always and the captcha doesn’t show on the register page at all.

On the developer instance, I managed to get through and the captcha did appear, but it wasn’t a smooth experience either.

I have Firefox 115.0.2 on Ubuntu and it works.

Still trying to understand how this is supposed to work. The account I create seems to have nothing to do with my current Google account and all my YouTube lists. I see I can import in my subscriptions but I can't say, get to my watch later list.

Also, I'd like to run this on my TV (Vizio) directly if possible. I suspect it's not possible.

Had the same Issue with Firefox 118.0.2 on Windows and 118.2.0 on Android, but I was able to work around it. Had to deactivate the "Dark Reader" extension for that page, after that that was smooth sailing on both devices. I guess that counts for any extension that modifies the page like Dark Reader would.

Thank you! Disabling Dark Reader also fixes broken layout issues on video pages.
