I tried it with another tab on Linux and also with my phone on the local network and on 5g and i cannot send images both ways. It just loads forever. :/

Hmmmm. After further testing it seems to be ad-blocker related possibly?

Image transfer seems to be broken completely
Image transfer seems to be broken completely (possibly ad-blocker related)
Oct 13, 2023
I just verified that image and file sharing is still working for me. It's a known issue that ad blockers can cause connection issues. File transfers go through https://github.com/jeremyckahn/secure-file-transfer which uses a WebTorrent tracker that's separate from the rest of the app (because it's a wrapper for the webtorrent library where the tracker cannot be customized as far as I know).
I don't know that there's much that can be done within Chitchatter to address this. The upstream WebTorrent dependencies could probably be modified to accept a custom tracker address similarly to Trystero, though.
I'll leave this open because the issue could conceivably be fixed, but I don't foresee that happening for a while. In the meantime I recommend disabling your ad blocker when transferring files.
