Brave is my primary web browser but every page I visit isn't being rendered correctly at all and some pages are completely broken. I have a system backup from a few days ago but I'd prefer not to have to use it if I can. I think Brave is the only thing that was affected but I think I should try to revert the update if it's possible.

I tried using Synaptic but it's only listing the current version so I guess I can't use that.

As for the system backup, it's a few days old but I don't think I did anything with it that I couldn't replace. I just mostly don't want to because, assuming that Brave is the only thing that broke, Firefox works fine still. If I can't get Brave or another Chromium browser to work, I can just use Firefox for the time being and hope the issue gets fixed later. Although, I'd need to know how to set up and use multiple Firefox profiles. which I used to know how to do on Windows but I was never able to find out how to do this on Linux.

    In the case of Firefox profiles maybe I can actually provide some useful info this time.

    "firefox -ProfileManager" brings up the GUI profile manager and "firefox -P [profile name]" boots a particular profile.

    Anyway, good luck.

    That works, I can't seem to get it to work quite like how I had it on Windows but manually launching a second instance with the other profile from the first instance is fine. If you must know why I'm doing it like this, I use one profile that doesn't have any extension installed and another that does.
