Import Settings Working? (lemmy.ml)

I am relocating from lemmy.one since it is shutting down. Does the "Import Settings" function work? I tried using it, but the page reported an error at the bottom left of the screen. I tried again yesterday and then again today, and the message at the bottom left of the screen just says something like "please wait awhile before importing or exporting settings."

In the bottom left of the screen:

"Please wait a few minutes before trying to import or export settings again"

Thats from the rate limit, it seems you already did a settings import recently. That can take a lot of resources so its limited to once every 24 hours by default. If the import didnt work last time try again a day later.

Did you get any other error before that?

Can you give us the error, please?

I just tried again. The only thing that pops up is a small box in the bottom left corner of the screen that says:

"Error, please try again."

If I try again, i get this again:

“Please wait a few minutes before trying to import or export settings again”
