Anyone able to post links with Android Chrome?

I can't seem to post a link with Android Chrome. When I fill in the title plus url and click Submit Post the form is cleared and nothing else appears to happen. Chrome simply remains on the create new post page and the form is empty.

Edit:
Chrome 67.0.3396.87
Android 8.1.0

If I fill in the title and the link and click preview the preview indicates that the post is untitled and displays no link. Clicking the back to editing button displays the create new post page with a blank form. This is not an issue if I do not include a link. I think the problem might have to do with page validation. I think it is validating that both the title and text are filled in, but if I add a title plus text plus link then that is also not valid. I can't debug this very easily now though as I am on the bus.

    Using the same version of Android and Chrome I wasn't able to reproduce this behaviour - https://www.indiehackers.com/forum/how-do-you-deal-with-spammers-requesting-free-trials-4f9d6439c1

    Maybe it's an issue with cache/cookies have you tried incognito mode?

      I tried that, but I still ran into the issue. I am able to post if I type the link and title, but if I paste the link and title from the clipboard and I do not modify the pasted text with the keyboard then that seems to trigger the behavior.
