Manjaro KDE. This package, like the Chrome package that dropped a few days ago, does not play well with high-dpi screens when scaling is chosen. It looks like the scaling factor is applied twice - everything is huge.

@chandradeepdey I don't have a desktop to test icons. Does this patch work for you without breaking the regular shortcut? https://gist.github.com/mixedCase/80471462a4135c7b307486f4a5d84869

When you install a web app, the following is added to $XDG_DATA_HOME/desktop-directories/chrome-apps.directory-

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Directory
Name=Brave Browser Apps
Icon=brave-desktop

Brave expects the icon to be named brave-desktop. This package puts it as brave, can this be changed?

@zerophase the --reflink option was used to speed up the packaging phase by doing a lightweight copy of the package contents to $pkgdir. It had no effect whatsoever on brave-bin performance. See cp(1) manual.

I have had no issues with brave lately, but I do not use it that much.

For anyone having issues with the browser loading the 1.25 brave-beta-bin browser fixes the problem. If we all of that issue it might be worth updating to the beta here anyways.

Having issues with Brave refusing to load pages. Seems to have gotten worse with the latest update.

@mixedCase Could removing that reflink=auto flag break GNU releases? Can't we just add a flag or detection method for using a version of those lines with and without it? Isn't it pretty easy to detect if someone does not have cp? I think it's like 4 lines of a script.

Some of those optimizations definitely impact performance depending on how the code is written in certain use cases.

@Th30 I don't use Brave rewards, but I've seen people complaining about the same thing in the Brave subreddit. Seems like a cross-platform issue.
