Brave does not open websites or extensions

[umbral canyon]

Hi, I´m new in Linux, it´s my first time here. When installing Brave via Flatpack some websites and extensions aren't installing. Am I missing something in my system or browser, or is this a Flatpack issue? Thanks.

[tardy prairie]

What kind of extension do you need to install?

[umbral canyon]

I don't know how to take screenshots and crop then

[tardy prairie]

There is no problem

Is this a nordVPN extension?

[umbral canyon]

Dark Reader, to put the websites in dark mode

[umbral canyon]

No, i'm trying to download the .deb

[tardy prairie]

Ok, strange though, I normally installed that extension on Firefox, do you know if you were already using it on Brave from another operating system?

[tardy prairie]

In fact I see problems that seem to be related to the connection

[umbral canyon]

Yes I use it in Windows and perfect

[tardy prairie]

OK perfect

[umbral canyon]

Like what? Firewall o servers?

[tardy prairie]

It seems something like this but an unusual problem, are you sure you are connected to wi fi?

[umbral canyon]

Yes, I don´t have the Ethernet cable

[tardy prairie]

Anyway, to test in case you can install another browser in flatpak and see if the extensions are installed there, if so then good luck from flatpak to some bug

You can always install the brave .deb if necessary

[umbral canyon]

Sure but that's my problem too, I can't access brave either, I don't understand why

Some websites just won't load for me

Idkw

[tardy prairie]

Ok this is crazy, it seems like there is a firewall like you said that blocks the connections, I know how to help you

[umbral canyon]

Tell me how please

[tardy prairie]

I can't help you because it's beyond my knowledge, but someone who knows can help you.

[umbral canyon]

Ok

[tardy prairie]

@umbral rain When you have time that I know you are already helping another person, helping this girl, the problem here is more serious than expected because it seems that her firewall blocks certain sites

[tardy prairie]

@umbral canyon I think there is a temporary solution, if you use a VPN you can bypass the fact that the firewall blocks certain sites.

[umbral canyon]

what vpn do i use?

[tardy prairie]

ProtonVPN really respects your privacy, at least and the best VPN with the best terms of service

But only use it as a temporary solution.

[umbral canyon]

have a free trial?

[tardy prairie]

Totally free

[umbral canyon]

I can't enter in the Website

[tardy prairie]

With the phone? You can use the phone connection in case

[umbral canyon]

Ok, the problem is not the Linux

[tardy prairie]

What's the problem?

I'm very curious

I have never seen a problem like this

[umbral canyon]

It's the Network of Venezuela

Wow

[tardy prairie]

Why?

[umbral canyon]

Nothing like this has ever happened before

[umbral canyon]

The government

And Idkw

[tardy prairie]

Is this a general problem of your nation? Damn

[umbral rain]

try brave as official deb package if they offer it

[umbral canyon]

Wait

[tardy prairie]

We solved it It's a network problem of his country he says

[tardy prairie]

Yes?

[umbral canyon]

In that case, what can I do?

Or is there any way to change my region in the packet stores and such?

I installed the Worldwide

[tardy prairie]

If your problem concerns the whole nation you have to wait for the problem to be solved, if the problem comes from something else it has to be solved

[umbral rain]

keep in mind the router has DNS settings. they may be the ISP's . the ISP controls what u can communicate on the web

[umbral canyon]

Ok Installing Proton

[umbral canyon]

And how can I modify them?

[umbral rain]

if ur using proton vpn, or any vpn, it gives its own domain name service

also proton usually installs gnome desktop from what I've seen. no panic, but it may

[umbral canyon]

I'm stuck, I can't install the VPN

[umbral rain]

make a new ticket. with the exact package name, and distro info. of inxi -Sr shown in the opening paragraph

someone who knows may come around

inxi -Sr < exact lettercase always

[umbral canyon]

How do I make a new ticket?

Like this chat?

[umbral rain]

new title, opening paragraph, and tags

[umbral canyon]

Ok, I did it

[tardy prairie]

[umbral canyon]
