Just hopping into the chain to say that I appreciate you and all of your hard work! This place—Lemmy in general, but specifically this instance—has been so welcoming and uplifting. Thank you!
In my case, the page keeps spinning but the post is not submitted, regardless of reloading the page or waiting for a long time.
There was one case where I cut down significantly on the amount of characters in the post and then it posted, but I have been unable to replicate this.
I have the same issue with image posts. If I submit them through the app the posts counter on my profile goes up, but there's no post. I also can't retrieve any posts for my own account. It says I have 3 but it shows none.
Comments work OK so I'm not sure what the problem is. I was worried I got restricted or something.
Edit: Comments seem to work as the OP suggests though. I get the spinner but they've been posted already.
Edit2: It seems like I can't post link threads either.
Edit3: Even worse, it seems like I can't see my own posts but others can. So I might have spammed Warhammer40k and tabletopminis and I can't even clean up my own mess.
Edit4: If I sign out and go to these communities I can see my own posts. I can also go directly to them if I have the link. I can also keep track of them by clicking the star button but it seems like my feed is broken.
Edit5: Oh my god I'm so fucking stupid. If you hide posts you've seen it'll also hide your own posts...
@ruud@lemmy.world Yo dude, first off huge props and a big thank you for what you have setup. I’ll be donating monthly while I am here. I appreciate that we have an alternative to Reddit at this critical moment in time.
I do have a question on your long term plans, do you want to continue to expand and upgrade the server, as funding allows, or is there a cap that you will close off the server to new members? Or perhaps make it more of a process to join?
Well if all the Reddit users would get over to Lemmy I guess all servers would need to scale up... but I think the server we have now is powerfull enough to grow quite a lot, as long as the software gets tuned ..
At least the "reply" button goes away so I don't end up double- triple- or even duodecuple-posting! Thanks for all the hard work that must be going on behind the scenes right now!
I kept getting a timeout message from Jerboa which led me to think I hadn't been posted. So I ended up submitting the same joke to the Dad Jokes sub three times. Which actually is how dad might tell that joke.
