Not working on Brave

Closed this issue · 14 comments

It seems like if you want to use it on any other browser than Chrome you'll have troubles

@CristianArean I'm using it on Brave. What problems are you having? I'm just an end-user like you.

Same for me, it used to work fine, but now Bing asks me to download Edge again...
Don't know if it is specific to Brave or not.
(I'm on Linux, if it changes something, and my locale on Brave is fr_FR)

yes, I'm using Linux too. Could be that the problem? I don't know in deep how extensions work on chromium-based browsers.

Just tried on Brave on Windows and it still works, so it seems to be a Linux issue...

It seems Bing Chat is coming on non Edge browser anyway...

I am using this on windows (also Brave) and the message appeared recently, not only a linux issue.

I'm using Brave on a Arch Linux. Had the same issue arise just now. Uninstalled and installing the extension fixed the issue. Hopefully it works for you too!

Brave user on Windows here, reinstalling the extension worked for me.

Reinstalling worked, thanks @tatejuan12 !

There is no need to reinstall the extension. All you need to do is disable and re-enable it. I reloaded the Bing page in between the two steps, but I don't think that's necessary.

well it seems that reinstalling works. Thaks to you all!

I don't think that this issue should be closed. The problems keeps on happening every couple of days. Yes, we have a workaround but it would be great to have a permanent fix.

Was about to comment the same as @cowwoc , even after reinstalling it happened again after a day or so ~~.

It seems the user-agent used for firefox in working for all (tried in a unpacked version), why not use it for all browsers (and maybe ditch the mobile support to simplify) ?
