No themes loading on the “Add Themes” page

    Hi people,

    I have just set up a new site. Using the latest version tar. Everything is working fine, except for one thing: whenever I click the “Add New Theme” button (which goes to /wp-admin/theme-install.php?browse=popular), no themes are displayed whatsoever: I only see the animated circle as if it were loading. Searching or selecting another tab does not help either.

    I did basis troubleshooting as suggested here and also disabled UFW, checked curl, doublechecked directory/file permissions. Debugging does not return anything either.

    I am at a loss. Has anyone seen this before and/or has an idea where I should look for a solution?

    Thanks!

    Inspecting the page, there is this Javascript error:

    Things are working fine on Firefox, only Brave is acting up (even after clearing cache and cookies). So I have a work-around at least.

    If it works in one browser and not the other, I would first suspect extensions in the problematic browser. They may be blocking the execution of scripts.

    If this is not the case, deactivate all plugins and try switching to a standard theme. Does it work then? Then one of the deactivated things was to blame.

    Thanks, it was a plugin indeed (Metamask)!
