> It doesn't seem to be anywhere (in text) in: /Users/mark/Library/Application Support/BraveSoftware Of course it's not in text. It's a SQLite3 database: $ sqlite3 ~/'Library/Application Support/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/Default/Top Sites' .dump PRAGMA foreign_keys=OFF; BEGIN TRANSACTION; CREATE TABLE meta(key LONGVARCHAR NOT NULL UNIQUE PRIMARY KEY, value LONGVARCHAR); INSERT INTO meta VALUES('mmap_status','-1'); INSERT INTO meta VALUES('version','4'); INSERT INTO meta VALUES('last_compatible_version','4'); CREATE TABLE top_sites (url LONGVARCHAR PRIMARY KEY,url_rank INTEGER,title LONGVARCHAR,redirects LONGVARCHAR); INSERT INTO top_sites VALUES('https://chrome.google.com/webstore?hl=en',0,'Web Store',NULL); COMMIT; This is actually a database inherited from Chromium, so I'm not sure if the issue is inherited from Chromium. Edit: Tried this on Chromium 86.0.4185.0, top sites db is cleared after clearing all browsing data, so probably not inherited from Chromium. (Btw I wasn't able to repro on Brave because however many times I open news.ycombinator.com, it simply won't register in top sites -.-)
