Unable to Invite Certain Friends to Edit on Team Create

I am experiencing an issue where I cannot grant Edit permissions to specific friends in Team Create. This happens across all my personal Team Creates, including newly created ones.

  • When I attempt to invite a friend by entering their username, I receive an error stating they are user must be a friend to edit, even though they are.
  • When trying to invite a group, the option to grant Edit permissions does not appear at all.
  • Strangely, this issue only affects some friends, while others can be invited without any problems.

Reproduction Steps:

  1. Open Team Create in any of my personal places.
  2. Click the Invite button in the top-right.
  3. Enter a friend’s username or select a group.
  4. Observe that:
    • Some friends cannot be granted Edit permissions (marked as “not a friend”).
    • Groups do not have the Edit option available.

Expected Behaviour:

I should be able to invite any friend and grant them Edit permissions.

Actual Behaviour:

  • Some friends are incorrectly marked as “not a friend” when attempting to grant Edit permissions.
  • Groups do not show the option to assign Edit permissions.

Additional Notes:

  • Other users I asked do not experience this issue.
  • I have checked multiple friends and found that about 90% can be invited successfully, while 10% cannot.
  • The issue persists across all my personal Team Create places, even new ones.
  • See attached images/gifs for reference.

I believe I have found the cause.

The cause is how long you have been friends with this user. I seem to encounter this issue pretty consistently when trying to invite someone that I have been friends with for a few years now.

All the users below I believe I have been friends with since roughly before December 2023.

As you can see, I am unable to set edit permissions for any of them. But, for users who I recently added, the edit option appears and it shows “friend” when searching:
