Could it be that this change has something to do with Whaleshare? I have a Whaleshare account and they recently did something like that. And I had to struggle to find my other keys to sign in again and then foreseeing another similar situation, I backed up all my Steemit Keys too (just in case).
Well, now I can see STEEM is not Steemit and viceversa...
I didn't like Brave browser either, I installed some time ago and it has many problems, I guessed I had to wait for a good update later... But I still use Firefox and Chrome.
The wallet works fine with Chrome once you enter your posting key, it won't ask about it anymore unless you close your browser...
In the face of changes: improvise, adapt and overcome
PS: What a hell is a condenser?
