As soon as I went to the page where I can see which version of chrome was running, it decided to update. I'm not sure what version it was running before, but it is now 'Version 128.0.6613.120 (Official Build) (64-bit) '
I deleted my cache again, tried to comment again, and lo and behold, it worked! So that was the issue! An outdated version of chrome.
I visited the debug page afterwards and it gave me a white page with only this text:
Array ( [ticket id] => 61e7446128c5d85e3c7c7c048d0cdf5a [guest] => 0 [hdm] => 1 [dm] => 1 [hide_ads] => 0 )
I'm not sure if it was supposed to do anything else? But either way for me the issue is already fixed.
