Lemmy 0.19.4 introduced a quite serious defect whereby if you are using Ungoogled Chromium (and perhaps stock Chromium), the form to create a new post accepts input but then the instant you tab out of the field, the whole field is cleared. Poof… just like that, all your work vanishes and no way to get it back.

Firefox-based browsers have no issue.

~~Lemmy 0.19.5 seems to have fixed it.~~ But there are other problems with both 0.19.4 and 0.19.5, so I suggest not upgrading past 0.19.3.

(edit) actually the problem manifests differently in 0.19.5. The form can be filled out and there is no data loss, but the “create” button is insensitive. It remains gray and behaves as if the form is still empty.

Report problems with a service here that is unrelated to user-controlled client side software. Thus servers and web clients are fair game. This is a catch-all for situations not accommodated by the following related communities:

!bugs@sopuli.xyz - for bugs in third-party software apps
!isitdown@infosec.pub - for downtime status on Lemmy instances specifically (although they accept reports on any fedi node)
!assholedesign_web@infosec.pub - for deliberate enshitification of web services specifically
