There are some reports I'd like to make, to correct some information: for instance, that this and this have the same author, or that this is a shoujo manga and not a shounen one.

However, if I click on the “report” button, the “Reason” drop-down menu appears to load indefinitely, without ever actually loading. If I ignore it and try to make the report anyway, nothing happens.

Now, I recognise that my usage of a certain niche browser might be making things more difficult than they need to be. I'd like to ask, however: Is this working as intended, or could I hope for it to be corrected at some point?

Thanks in advance.

Consult the holy shitlist.

No, that's not intended, and no, it's not a known issue.
  1. I hadn't seen this before, thank you.
  2. So! I tried the first item on that list, and told NoScript to set all scripts to “temporarily trusted”. Then I tried reporting again, and it worked.
    But that's not the only thing. After I revoked the temporary trust, I tried making another report, and it worked as well. Smells like a ReCAPTCHA issue to me.
In any event, the short-term problem has been fixed, so thank you again.

Reports, account creation, and a couple other endpoints that I can't remember are locked behind reCAPTCHA v3. It's probably silently failing in the background because of the scripts you're blocking.
