Server error when saving build to library TS4

In newly generated clean game with no mods (PC, windows 11) and all mods turned off in Game Options I get the message:

Server error. We could not process this gallery request. Please try again later.

I saw a solution that worked for some of letting the game wait until the window showing the build disappeared, then the build would actually save despite the message, but after 4 hours that never happened for me. I have no idea but think what broke my game was using the Pack Selection Tool before I'd read how dangerous it was. 

I've cleared cache folders and repaired repeatedly and tried deleting the user setting file as well, no difference.

    Out of desperation and literally having tried everything else over the last 5 days, I switched the settings back to DX9 (I opened the game in the EA app, Manage menu, View properties, and typed -dx9 into the Advanced launch options box, then Save) and the game is working perfectly again and saving builds immediately as it was before the update. 

    I'm leaving this post though as I'd like an expert opinion on if going back to DX9 will negatively impact my game in some other way I may not be aware of. Thank you.
