Hi Cindy,
Good day to you! How are you doing? Thanks for your response. To answer your question, there seems to be a code fix required to comprehensively fix the issue so that this functionality becomes more resilient to handle this kind of scenario instead of not progressing and getting stuck. That will take much time and there is no ETA for that at the moment. Since workaround is already available, please continue to use that. For this reason, we will need to archive this ticket for now. However I will review the status in a month or something and will share an update to you from my end."
That was in March and I've heard no more. The workaround is to go to Classic and create a template.

Hi,
Thanks for replying. Actually, this issue has somehow magically resolved itself! And now I am able to create new lists from previous ones in Modern SPO. I don't understand why.. but I am not complaining!
