Comment 1 jon33040 2022-09-21 09:26:21 UTC 
I just tried the native build of DK on the PC concerned (rather than the appimage which is what the original report concerns). This happens to be DK 7.5.
The native build works fine so this is either an appimage issue or a regression between DK 7.5 and 7.8.

Tested here at the moment on Windows 10 (digiKam-8.0.0-MSVC) and deleted digikamrc and digikam_outhrc. No problems occurred when logging in for the first time.

That suggests an appimage problem to me.
Comment 4 jon33040 2022-09-23 08:22:24 UTC 
Ubuntu has DK 7.8.0 packaged as a snap so I installed that.
This bug does not appear on DK 7.8.0 when it's packaged as a snap. I can login to flickr and upload without any problems.
This would seem to be a problem with the appimage.
