Description
Further information: running in Digital Ocean, smallest instance size available (1M memory, has previously been beautifully stable even under reasonable load).
We have a small organization (16 users). Two coders recently departed, so I went into the GUI (as an administrator) to remove them. One was fine, but when I attempted to remove the other it said that the account couldn’t be removed while the user was a member of an organization. I went to one of the two organizations they were a part of, went to the user list (/org/<organization_name>/members) and clicked “Remove” by the user name. The interface locked up - and in fact I eventually had to stop the gitea service (which takes a full 60 seconds). I restarted the service, tried to remove the user from the other organization they are a member of, had exactly the same lock-up (and solution).
I upgraded from 1.11 to 1.11.3 and the behaviour is identical. I’ve discovered that I can disable the account instead of removing the user so that’s a partial work-around, but this seems to be a significant bug.
Without admin access to try.gitea.io I can’t replicate there.
I’ll consider sending logs if you ask for them: I’m not rushing to do so because it reveals more personal info than I’m comfortable with. If you request logs, I may obfuscate them which may make them less useful …
Otherwise … massively impressed by this software. Thanks.

@guillep2k Go to the Organization page. On the right, it says “People” and then further right of that there’s a count of those people. Click on the count. That page is <URI>/org/<org_name>/members , and you have a big red “Remove” button beside each member. That’s what I’m talking about.
I added a new user, then added them to just one organization: exact same problem as the previous user (who is in two organizations), crash on attempt to remove from the organization.
Since you pointed out the distinction, I tried removing the offending user from the Team rather than the Organization. And all is just fine and I was able to remove the users entirely - finally.
Please note that this all started because when I attempted to delete a user, a big warning came up: “This user is a member of an organization. Remove the user from any organizations first.” It doesn’t say “remove the user from any teams first.” So I tried to remove them from the organization(s).
I’m hoping that this distinction is the problem and will lead to a fix. If you still want/need more debug output, get back to me next week …
