Short answer: Brave can’t do it natively.
Long answer: Use "AdGuard" (the desktop app, not just the extension). It has a "Stealth Mode" where you can block IPs. A bit heavy-handed, but it works.
Or, if you’re on Mac/Linux, terminal commands like `iptables` can block IPs system-wide. Google "block IP with iptables" if you’re brave (pun intended).

Thanks for all the suggestions, folks! I didn’t realize how to block ip address in brave browser would need workarounds, but this gives me a lot to try.
Gonna test uMatrix first—seems the easiest for my needs. If that fails, I’ll mess with the hosts file.
Quick Q: Anyone know if BlockSite slows down Brave? Saw mixed reviews.
Appreciate the help!
