The extension stopped working in the Brave browser on Linux.

Valentin MerkulovOct 11, 2024

Apparently Browser Guard storage periodically gets corrupted, causing spikes of high CPU usage as Browser Guard is trying to update its database. Clearing storage and installing database update manually resolves the problem temporarily until storage seems to get corrupted again. I'm using Brave on Linux but I've been seeing the same problem on Chromium. Firefox works alright though.
