Thanks, will just say we're looking into this currently, thanks!
Issue https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/15446 raises a good point, that when we get to this, we should look into how we could report what farblig protections are being triggered in devtools too
Edit: Updated the initial report.
Description
This one of a few issues that prevents me from switching to Brave full time. Whenever I ever encountered an issue caused by ad filtering (aka issue goes away if network filtering is disabled), I always open Developer tools Network tab and uBlock Origin filter log and see what caused it. Currently, Brave shows blocked requests on the Network as if they were resolved with successfully (200) and had no content and only had headers (irrespective of the actual request type, it seems):
This is a bit misleading and would be nice to have blocked requests as such in the table. Currently, the only way to know that a request is blocked is to check:
The only alternative way to view the blocked requests is via the Shields extension, which is inconvenient because:
FYI, I have seen a lot of people on https://www.reddit.com/r/brave_browser recommend using Brave and uBlock Origin together because of Brave's limited functionality. I personally don't do this because I don't want to use two network filters doing the same exact thing at the same time.
