</head>
    <body>
        <nav class="navbar navbar-expand-md navbar-dark bg-dark">

Also be sure to add Popper and Bootstrap's JS to your head tags otherwise dropdowns won't work!

<head>

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@popperjs/[email protected]/dist/umd/popper.min.js" integrity="sha384-I7E8VVD/ismYTF4hNIPjVp/Zjvgyol6VFvRkX/vR+Vc4jQkC+hVqc2pM8ODewa9r" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="

</head>

Use data-bs-toggle='dropdown', refer from boostrap 5.0 docs and make sure that the user is authenticated.

Try this template code:

{% if user.is_authenticated %}
    <ul class="navbar-nav ms-auto">
        <li class="nav-item">
            <a class="nav-link dropdown-toggle" href="#" id="userMenu"
            data-bs-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true"
            aria-expanded="false">
            {{ user.username }}
            </a>
            <div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right"
                aria-labelledby="userMenu">
                <a class="dropdown-item"
                href="#">Upload</a>
                <div class="dropdown-divider"></div>
                <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">
                Log Out</a>
            </div>
        </li>
    </ul>
    
{% else %}
        <form class="form-inline ms-auto">
        <a href="#" class="btn btn-outline-secondary text-white">
        Log In</a>
        <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary ms-2 text-white">
        Sign up</a>
        </form>
{% endif %}
