Every time I try to change my avatar on vlemmy I get this error:

SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

Is this issue known, is it widespread, and is there a workaround to get the avatar working?

    It’s rare, but reoccurring issue. I would try to wait a bit and try again.

    Are you using a browser, an app and which one?

    I had the same issue before, but it woked after they updated the server. No idea as to why, though.

        Okay, maybe try a chromium based browser (like brave, vivaldi or chrome). If that still doesn’t work, you might want to post something on the support community or use the search function to find a fix or something.

        Hopefully, you’ll get faster/better answers there.

          I’m getting another error, I think I am going to ask the support community, thanks for your help!
