Is your instance backend actually mastodon? That gets saved on your instance / not locally.

I can maybe add a fallback if it fails to store it locally.

FWIW, the network error should be printed in logs, run tuba with G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=Tuba flatpak run dev.geopjr.Tuba and reproduce it.

No, it's snac (no option in issue template) and also I'm using my Ipv6 subject - could be an issue in your opinion?
Does it works for you? I believe that's listing item save bug, because other switchers are working (saving on dialog close).

Basically, most settings are local, which you can see here flatpak run --command=gsettings dev.geopjr.Tuba list-recursively dev.geopjr.Tuba, but 1-2 of them are saved in your server so they can be synced across clients. The default language and post visibility are 2 of them.

snac2 doesn't seem to implement the language one yet (https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2/src/commit/f321905d4bcdd4ae5b344f9b743ecdac35e3672f/mastoapi.c#L3511), let me open an issue. If you ran Tuba from the command line, it would print the error message probably.

Thanks a lot! I'm just a newbie in ActivityPub, the reason on server side, closing so.

Tbh, I think it's a nice suggestion to save it locally if saving it to / retrieving it from the server fails
