 I have several wordpress sites that have been around for a while (like 5+
 years).
 Very default config, home page is Latest Posts, so I had a Links/Blogroll
 section in the sidebar.
 I recently decided to change the sort order of those Links, and it appears
 after making a change for the first time, all the default display
 selections get selected, and making any changes (as in un-selecting) does
 not 'stick'.  It shows but then after a Save, goes back to all selected.
 I've gone down many rabbit-holes in troubleshooting, and I'm somewhat of a
 novice when it comes to WordPress guts, but it seems to work when I turn
 off the newer Block editors and mess with the widgets in the older
 interface.

 That's kind of all I know.
 I'm aware the Links feature was disabled some time ago, but I actually use
 it critically in my use-case.
