Users with the role of author are unable to set featured images in posts. I am able to replicate this in a fresh installation of WordPress (no plugins, 2021 theme).
There are two errors in the console:
api-fetch.min.js?ver=5f98b08f212ba8fa8b4685ad2e1b1378:2 GET https://dev.msiachild.org/wp-json/wp/v2/media/16?context=edit&_locale=user 403

I’ve enabled Cloudflare’s development mode to bypass the cache;
I’ve updated the 2021 theme.
My Php Version is 7.4.8
