Ok, I am spent, will catch up tomorrow, thanks for your guidance and patience.

I am obviously lacking some technical understanding here…

Addition: Alright, so not there is no possible way for me to check this now, unbeknownst to my self, the LE cert installed it-self, as stated earlier by you and your peer.

Bummer… Guess I will go from ground zero and be sure to check the hash for 256 instead of 1. What I am confused about is the confused layout of Brave’s cert identifier. No where it says SHA1, and as seen it says SHA256. When I went to investigate, there was no way to click on any additional information as suggested by the forum. So This morning I opened up firefox and… (Start from the top of this post for clarification…)

Firefox may be a better option. However, Brave interface you show looks similar to the generic Microsoft interface, which is why I thought you could click it. It also looks like there is a drop-down menu at ‘Show:’ which may have an option which allows you to display the SHA-256 hash. Seems really complicated compared to other versions of the same browser. Weird.

Other than perhaps a simpler UX, why would firefox be better than a chromium clone?

Better is subjective. In this case, Firefox is using a different codebase, so maybe it is easier to display the SHA-256 fingerprint.

I didn’t know about that forum setting. I don’t think the chat worked against you, but there is also the Slack channel:

One last questions:

Can you please run the following and paste the output:

```
$ free -h

```

I’m trying to see if Vultr ever added `swap` to their Ubuntu instances.

And please confirm if you are using the standard Cloud Compute or High Frequency Compute.

I really appreciate it.

I’m guessing you chose the 2GB ($12) tier?
