Description

Using the Search tool (Ctrl+F) searching for words with the character ñ Ñ (alt+164) it is impossible to filter them without taking into account the letter n N. This behavior does not happen with Chrome, but surprisingly it does the same with Mozilla Firefox, where the search does not distinguish between ñ and n.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Brave Browser
  2. Look for Find in the menu or press Ctrl + F on desktop
  3. Search for words with ñ character on Google (Piña, baño, paño, ñame) and look how words with n letter are taken as well in the search,

Actual result:

Expected result:

Filtered words containing only the ñ character without the words with n letter.

Reproduces how often:

Always.
