Plex web - empty trash not possible in android chrome

Plex Media Server

Server Version#: 1.19.4.2893 Ubuntu 18.04 x64
Player Version#: app.plex.tv - 4.35.1

I’m not able to empty trash on mobile using Chrome on android. I’ve not been able to do it for several years now, not since the previous iteration of the Plex web UI came out.

As soon as I hit empty trash the dialog flashes up then vanishes immediately. Mobile is pretty much the only way I have of managing my server at home and so not being able to do it is a real pain.

Is this a known bug / are there any work arounds? Other dialogs in Plex web are fine. Unfortunately this is the only admin thing I use regularly that isn’t available as a nice button in the mobile app or the new Plex dashboard app.

I have this exact same issue on android Chrome and also on the native (Samsung S8 or S10+) browser. Selecting ‘Empty Trash’ from the Manage Library menu does nothing.

Highly annoying, especially on a headless server, plus no such functionality in the mobile app, so any fix would be appreciated.
