Are avatar uploads intentionally disabled or is this a bug?

Hi there! Moi!

Tried uploading a JPEG avatar and seem to be getting this error: Request error: error sending request for url (http://localhost:8080/image): error trying to connect: tcp connect error: Address not available (os error 99)

Is this intentional or a bug? Seems some users on the instance have avatars while many don't.

Try reducing the resolution on your jpeg. I couldn't upload anything till I took down to 600x800.

I'm having the same issue. My jpeg is smaller than the 600x800 and I'm still getting errors. I just did a search on Lemmy and found several posts from the last 24 hours all with this issue.

I waited a few hours. Then when I tried it again just now, it worked!
