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!
