Using the web UI on lemmy.ml (BE:0.18.0) from firefox browser for iPad (v114.2) iPadOS v16.5.

When I try to create a post with images using the image icon in the Body section of the create post dialog, the UI prompts to select the image but the image URL is not inserted and the [Preview] does not show the image. After attempting to insert the image several times I will get an error in the bottom right that looks like JSON data with “rate exceeded” in it. I’m assuming this is because the instance server is telling me I tried to upload to much to fast, which would lead me to think that the URLs are getting created on the backend but not being brought to the UI. Has anyone else run into this issue? Any workarounds?

    Yes, I am getting that issue as well. That seems to happen on anything that causes a page refreash on lemmy.ml To reproduce this reliably you can go to a communities home page and hit the browser refreash button (or F5). It will happen intermittently while reading post comments, etc. but this is a way that I can defiantly trigger it.
