Mag safe charger blinking orange after newest update.

Updated my MacBook Air to Sonoma 14.2.1 and after doing so the mag safe charger just blinks orange over and over. I've tried cleaning the port, unplugging and replugging it back in, restarting the computer, and nothing seems to be working. No damage done to cord after I have inspected it.

MacBook Air 15″, macOS 14.2

My MacBook air M2 charger does not fully turn green when battery is at 100% charge As the title implies, my M2 MagSafe charger does not turn green when my Mac is at 100% charge. I still need to remove and put it back again for it to turn green. I have already tried resetting its SMC, but it still does the same. If it helps, I recently installed AlDente but uninstalled it after a few weeks. I think that seems to be the reason why my Macbook's charger is not working properly. I believe I uninstalled it properly on my device by following the developers' instructions but still, my MacBook charger doesn't turn green when fully charged.

MBA magsafe charger randomly attaching at an angle? So a few days ago i plugged my MBA (2022) in and i noticed my charger looked weird. instead of plugging straight in, it kind of attaches at an angle. it’s not one of the things where i have to hold it at an angle for it to work though. i would say it charges fine, but it wants to come off of my mac a lot easier than before and when i move it the indicator light flashes once or twice. I have cleaned the port on my mac, and the charger itself to no avail. does anyone know what it might be? it’s really frustrating because nothing comes up when i look it up and the closest repair place to me is 2hrs away (i can’t send it in because i use it for college almost everyday). the first image is a view of the charger from the side. PLEASE tell me im just overthinking this and this is how it’s supposed to sit. the second photo is of the port on my mac. i noticed what looked to be a little bit of damage on the left (?) side.
