I have confirmed that switching the Captcha's data challenge has resolved extremely slow loading times on Tor.

TL;DR: to confirm the client actually downloaded the data it had to encrypt it back to a simple hash. I used blake2 instead of a native crypto like sha and this was brutal on single-core tor browsers.
 
why can't i upload an avatar
the giant banner on every page saying you're a newly registered user is why you cannot upload an avatar.
 
Is this true?
Yeah, but better trick is to not even let the phone write the EXIF data so you never get caught up. Never set your phone's name as "Crystal Jenkins born 2015", never have location enabled, never let it write the phone model or camera model, and letting it write date/time is pushing it imo.
 
Attachments broken. Any attempt to attach results in the upload bar going to 100% immediately, then nothing. Can't attach DICK. Brave current most up to date version.
I've been getting this, it comes out on my end as a couple of blank spaces (as if I'm quoting a post with an attachment; the spot where the image is in draft looks blank but you can delete over it).

It's been turning out that my image did attach successfully, and a second attempt to attach in draft (thinking it didn't) causes a second image to be uploaded. Not sure if I've got the same issue as you, but that's what I've been running into. I'm on Firefox myself, latest version.
 
For the past X amount of weeks, I've been noticing when you quote-reply a post with images attached to it, the images just don't show up. I ignored it for a while but today I decided to look at it a little closer and it seems like there's automatic code being added to the BB Code to resize the image to 0x0 pixels.

For example
Code:
[ATTACH size="0x0" alt="seth vs brent tweet lmao.png"]9645202[/ATTACH]

I guess I want to know if this is by-design as some sort of mitigation for people quote-replying posts with 80 billion images and wasting bandwidth/server space, or if it's a bug.

I had that too. Seems to be working now, though.
 
Is it me or the clearweb site is just inexcplicably down? It was working minutes ago and then suddenly the page proper will not load, shows the usual "page could not be loaded". Unlike the usual version where it loads for a couple seconds before showing the error page, refreshing the page automatically throws me to "page could not be loaded" in under a second. Tried both wifi and mobile does not work.

are you browsing by Tor over Clearnet?

I really, really, really, really cannot stress enough how much I need the following information for every single post in this thread:

* Device
* Browser
* Network type
 
i can browse the site on my phone over normal internet using wifi and NordVPN, but no avatars are appearing

i cannot browse the site on my computer on normal internet, using the same wifi connection and NordVPN. getting that “page could not be loaded” error instantly. no lock even after switching NordVPN nodes several times
