I do know what my favorite free Windows software updater is, MalwareTips For Chrome, Brave, Windows, Adobe Reader etc. this forum is always a great reminder for me to check for those updates. Thank you all

@silversurfer interesting, just 53 min after you posted about update 1.76.74, I had updated Fedora Linux about 30 min before that, and that Linux update included Brave! For me, the MT "Like" icons disappear in Brave, I can click "like" but I cannot select any of the options... (not seen this issue with firefox, but different issue with firefox today)

Check your Brave Shield settings. It's probably one of those.

In the past, I've also found if the screen resolution changes? (notebook), I have to grab the side bar and scroll up (or the touch screen), and they're hovering a post or two above. I'm not sure if it was just with Brave or not, don't remember.

thanks, not obvious to me which one it might be... first thought is they are default, but I might have been industrious in the past. Thanks for the heads up where to look...

Brave developers sure spend a lot of energy on crypto features. Not winning any non-crypto users over.
