after i press crtl + s, the asterisk is still there next to the file name and i notice that my changes dont take effect. If i press save asset or press save on the menu that pops up after i try to close the shadergraph window, i get the following warning in my console, and no changes are actually saved.
Shader Graph at Assets/Shaders/SG_BlackHole.shadergraph has 1 warning(s), the first is: Validation: Node behavior was changed. See inspector for details

That warning shouldn't prevent saving. Can fix it later by adding a Saturate or Absolute before any Power nodes.
I'm not sure the Validation one should prevent saving either, but it means you should check if there's any white boxes with "#" to the right of a node (or red with "!"). If you find one, click on the node to highlight it then check the Node Settings tab of the Graph Inspector window. It'll show the warning & update button if suitable.
Might be at the bottom in the Blackhole Mask group. Hard to tell from the screenshot quality.

The box I described is next to the View Direction node there, behind the Normalize
Can try replacing that node or click update button in Node Settings tab while the node is selected
In short it now is always normalised for you. (Would use View Vector node to access the unnormalised vector if needed)

Then delete and recreate it

Something is probably bugged then. Could try copying nodes to a new graph. If problems persist try updating Unity

yeah creating a new graph lets me delete things now

It's mostly just to notify you of changes to that node between versions. It now normalises for you, so the additional Normalize node isn't needed.
Like I said before, it shouldn't really prevent you from saving - that may have been a different issue/bug with that graph. Hopefully just recreating the graph fixes that too.
