I've tried another user: After changing the flag from Standard to Accept it works one time. Now I'm trying to set it back to Standard Same behaviour. Now the user is on direct accept and can't be changed back. Hm...

I've one weird problem. I've some lists and a user which is a moderator on both lists.

I don't understand how the moderator role is relevant.

Steps to reproduce

Postorius -> Users -> search for the user to change -> manage Both Lists are shown Moderarion Flag on a newer List was changed from standard to accept -> On the older list I've tried from Standard to Accept -> click on the button to accept changes result in reverting to "standard" (the setting which I want to change).

I don't think the moderator role or the presence of multiple lists is related; that page appears to be just broken. Here's another recipe:

1. I went to a site I maintain
2. returned to the top page
3. clicked on a list
4. clicked manage on a user (in both cases, just the one closest to the mouse ponter, no systematic idea)
5. clicked on the moderation option (which was List Default), selected Accept, clicked Update => option remained Accept
6. clicked on the moderation option (still Accept), selected List Default, clicked Update => option reverted to Accept
7. clicked on the moderation option (still Accept), selected Hold, clicked Update => option remained Hold.

I tried a few different things, but the pattern was consistent: I could change the option to any value except List Default.

You wrote in a followup that

Another way works

List -> users ->(members) -> select User and in User Settings changing moderation works.

and I can confirm that this does work on my instance.
