I'm trying to edit my profile in settings by uploading an avatar, etc. but whenever I save it just does the little circle thing and then when I leave no changes were saved. Also when I go back to settings all my changes are gone. Any help is appreciated and I thank you a lot.

I'll look into it and try to determine the reason. What browser or app are you using to do the edits with? Any logs from the attempts available? Any ad-blocking software enabled?

I'm using the Firefox browser. Also I'm on Linux, specifically Debiam 12 Gnome if that makes a difference. Also I should check for logs. That and yes. Going to disable it for now.

Look at this article for installing a non ESR, latest version of Firefox on Debain. Might solve the issue.

I have the latest but good idea and thanks for saying it. It won't even let me add my display name and I have my adblocker off.

It's not letting me save if I put my full name in but it's saving other things now. It seems the images didn't really upload though. I see them from my end in the settings but when I go to my own profile they're both broken and not showing.

It says network error when it comes to fetching resources. I'm paraphrasing but it gives that error message.

I checked Lemmy and it doesn't work on Lemmy either. Also sorry for the thread, haha.
