I am unable to post anything on the Brave mobile browser since the changes without workarounds. The textbox is not there at all at the bottom like it has been historically, though "Post Reply" is. If I hit reply to a message in the thread it pops up as a blank box but without any style options at the top, just blank boxes. Switching to "Show desktop site" on the phone also doesn't fix it. PC works fine.

If I'm secretly in Kiwi Prison for phonebrowsing I can deal with that, and if this is a move to entirely get rid of phoneposters I actually support that.

has this been an issue for several days? if so clear your browser's cache.

@Endless Torment I believe you had this issue and fixed it somehow.
I deleted all my cache and cookies in the browser and it didn't work and then I went into the app settings and cleared the cache there and then it finally worked.

It just started yesterday as far as I know, but clearing the cache did do the trick. That was a solution my IQ of 37 wouldn't have ever come up with somehow.

Thanks, Josh!
 
Damn it, can't attach .mp4s right now. I've trimmed the damned things down to <10 minutes, and am trying this shit at 360p. Using Chrome with the .st AND trying on Tor with the .onion as well. Both are failing despite cache clearing.

68M, uploads fine.

68M, uploads fine.
Cacophony of issues (and please pardon, I am a technical dumbass):
File sizes for reference:

I have all but given up on the larger file and am trying the three smaller files I've made by chopping the large one to bits.
Here's what Chrome's giving me if I try to load media directly into my post:

If I attempt to attach the file, it goes through its progress bar until about 45%, then just gives up and hands me the following:

Tor froze at 31% (and seconds after I took this screenshot, gave me the same result as Chrome. It's been doing this repeatedly, behaving like a slower Chrome with the same results from attempted uploads)

I've gotten so desperate I've actually opened up freaking Safari, of all browsers.
Which I've finally gotten some progress with - each file loads to about 70% and then freezes, but if I do this 3-4 times in a row it'll finally go through.

As you can see, images are doing fine, but .mp4's have been highly problematic.

Dunno if it helps, but here's the machine I'm running:

I've FINALLY gotten my files loaded after an hour of fucking around and having to go to Safari of all browsers, so I suppose I no longer need assistance, but figured I'd post this update anyway because the site's being a lot more bitchy than normal on my end.

How slow is your connection? Would you wager it takes you more than 5 minutes to upload your files?

It typically takes around 2-3 minutes to upload the big stuff on an ordinary day. Today it was moving extra slow.

Might just be my end - I wasn't thinking that my connection was especially fucky today. Sorry!
 
I have not been able to upload images properly on Tor for the past day or two. I have tried disabling extensions, changing the node, and restarting the browser.

This is what appears in the image selection field.

Everything is fucked for me right now and has been all day. Using Brave. Reply box doesn't appear at the bottom unless I click "reply" on some random post. Formatting icons are invisible. Same issues on mobile. Screenshot attached but not inserted in the post, because I can't do that.

I've had comments disappear/not autosave save when I was composing them before posting?

This might sound weird, but posts where I use excessive smilies seem to be the ones that have issues? When I don't use smilies the drafts save.

Edit: I also had a comment go missing in the Turkey Tom thread (although that's heavily moderated so maybe it's lock for now/my comment was redundant?)

Default style seems to be totally busted for me at the moment, has been since sometime since late yesterday. Switching to a different style seems to mostly work. Can't attach a screenshot though. The "Attach files" link opens in a new tab. Could upload fine, but there was no message field or anything to actually attach it to there.
