Failed to import CSV file generated by Brave
So I read on Reddit the intentions of Google with Chrome and adblocker add-ons, and I was worried because Brave (my Android browser until today) is based on Chromium as well. I've always been a Firefox user on desktop, and now on mobile as well since the dev team fixed the rendering errors of Firefox on Android. Ok so here goes my question: I've installed Brave on desktop (Linux) since I want my saved mobile login data on Firefox as well. So I exported a plaintext (unencrypted) *.csv file from Brave desktop and I am unable to import it onto Firefox (also on desktop).
I'm aware of the about:config key to be able to import CSV files to Firefox password manager, and is set to True. But the file does not import at all, so I opened the Browser Console and this is the logger output when I try to import the CSV file(screenshot also available):
``` eval() and eval-like uses are not allowed in the Parent Process or in System Contexts (Blocked usage in “chrome://global/content/third_party/d3/d3.js”) d3.js:2040:16
call to Function() blocked by CSP d3.js:2040

``` Then I looked into a CSV file generated by Firefox and it has the password hashed, so how do I need to proceed?
Is there any tool to convert the CSV contents?
Really, I want to use Firefox on all my devices but this change (for good) came from nowhere...
Hope someone has had this issue and can help me.

You could try the fix mentioned in a Reddit thread (remove the blank space in the link). It is referred to in the bug report.
