How can I install Flash for Brave browser?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;

I installed Brave and it had no Flash. I went to the plugins and they were recommending a Flash version called PepperFlash. I found guides online and installed that version, but Flash is still not working in Brave. What should I do?

I checked Brave browser for Flash video playback, and Brave browser does block all Flash videos possibly because of the built-in Brave script blocking feature's settings. My solution is to install Operasudo snap install opera
which also has a built-in ad blocker, but it plays all Flash videos by default. I think Opera web browser is what you're looking for even though it does not exactly answer this question.

I checked people's word on it in reddit and it seems that Opera was bought by a Chinese company and some woozy crap and I cant give my information to locals. It's also not open source so Idk. I was opting for Brave because it's kinda faster than a privacy configured firefox but meh

I could make Flash work with Brave through these steps:
- Installed Brave via the
.deb
file. - Installed the
adobe-flashplugin
package following this guide.
Created symlinks so Brave finds the plugin:
sudo mkdir /usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree
sudo ln -s ../adobe-flashplugin/libpepflashplayer.so /usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree/libpepflashplayer.so
sudo ln -s ../adobe-flashplugin/manifest.json /usr/lib/pepperflashplugin-nonfree/manifest.json
Started Brave and enabled Adobe Flash support from Settings -> Plugins
Edit:
Hmm.. I was too quick. Even if I could enable Flash in the browser, the sites I tested with failed to read the plugin. Will revisit this attempt at an answer soon.
