No Longer Able to Drag and Drop or Paste Items into Posts

[dioxide45]

This seems to have started fairly recently. Previously I was able to drag and drop images into new posts to add them as attachments. If I also had an image in my clipboard, I could use command+v (Mac). I can't do that anymore. I now have to use the Attach Files button and browse to the location of the image to attach it. Did something change? Or perhaps it is a change in Chrome on my side?

was just able to drag and drop an image from my desktop right into the quick reply option at the bottom of this post?

I tried about 6X to post (by copy & paste) a cartoon in the jokes thread in the Lounge yesterday and kept getting the message "oops something went wrong, contact the administrator". Eventually the thing uploaded, I am using Microsoft edge on a desktop. I saw in a few posts above mine that somebody else had problems as well.

It seems to be working for me again now. Before when I would try to drag and drop an image into the quick reply or reply box, it would open as a new tab in Chrome.
