anything META is not working. If I try to go to Facebook, Instagram, or whatever. Also, I can't access Pinterest which is the real worst—using Brave Browser.

Could you share the full error message you are seeing?

The MX Linux facebook group is fine!

I've taken to using ungoogled-chromium instead of Brave, which I only really used for it's built-in ad-blocker. I find that a good /hosts file works every bit as well as any ad-blocking extension added to a browser. And you don't get all that Brave-wallet, Brave-crypto, Brave this-and-that.

But Brave always worked on both pintrest and facebook for me, so open your Settings in Brave and make sure they aren't blocked by Brave's super-duper security features.

Try a different browser and report back.
