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

This is the error I'm getting in a red banner when trying to upload an avatar (512x512px, 39kb jpeg file). Was able to upload the same image to lemmy.world (which currently uses BE 0.17.4) without any errors.

Seems to work now!

I still can’t upload photos to posts or comments.

I can't upload either right now - tried with a gif, a png and a jpeg files. Keep getting this for an error:

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

Are you on any other instances at version 18 you can try?

Same here. Can’t upload an image to anything, posts, comments, nothing. Only on VLemmy. My other Lemmy and Kbin instances are fine.

Edit: The error I received when trying to insert into the body of a comment or at the top link when making a post is:

SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Unexpected identifier "Request"

I'm having the exact same issue: API error: SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data
