Had this issue. Happens to me when using the image selector that pops up. However, it works fine if I access the files and select the image from there.

Any idea if there's a way to default to this other method?
I haven't found a way to default to it really.
Yesterday I had an upload fail. The error made it sound like it was impossible to upload images to said community. I waited ten seconds, tried again, and it worked.
I don't think Voyager can do anything about it.
That's unfortunate.
I think it is instance related. I just grabbed this and it posted right away. No error.
No matter how long I wait I cannot post an image in a comment.
Probably lemmy.world servers were struggling. If it keeps on happening make an alt on something that accepts images straight away (I think slrpnk.net does) and test there via voyager.
It's a NSFW instance where this primarily comes up.
With a NSFW account? Because all posts including uploads go first to your own instance and are federated over a few seconds later.
Yes an account on that instance
Same error when I tried to reply with a photo upload. Worked after a moment of waiting.
