I tried to re-upload my shrimp masala pics, and got the "oops! Something went wrong!" error. I tried to just paste the pic into the message body from the clipboard (my most common method in the past) and also clicked the 'insert picture' link in the message input, and browsed to a copy on my hard drive. Both had the same issue.
Can't upload pics since the changeover

Seems to be working for me. I wonder what's different.
Just tried that...didn't work. I'm on firefox, dunno if that makes a difference. I'll try some other troubleshooting tomorrow.
Just tried it with FF71 on WinX and had no issues. Dragged a .PNG into this window and had it upload just fine.
Gonna recommend checking your scripting settings and/or blockers.

Only blocker I have is Ublock Origin, which is turned off for HF. I have made literally no changes between last week and this week.
The file uploads--i get the uploading dialog and progress bar that moves up to 100%. When it hits 100%, I get the "oops, we ran into a problem" dialog.
I'll continue to troubleshoot later today after work.
I'm at work..let's see how it works here...
Works fine for all methods. So it's most likely an issue with my pc.

NGL, until this post, I'd never even heard of JXL.
I'm not surprised. Google has specifically decided not to support it, preferring instead to throw their weight behind AV1F/HEIF and WEBP.

At least support for WEBP is spreading. My phone will let me attach it to texts, Windows built-in photo viewer has been able to display it for a while (though I'm not sure if supports animated/video webp yet). And there's a plug-in to let Irfanview handle it.
Still a damn annoying format, but then PNG support used to suck as well.
