However later I noticed that if I looked at the community in private mode, my post wasn't there! I just now reposted it with a slightly different title and now if you look at the community it is there:

https://lemmy.world/c/bmoviebonanza
https://lemmy.world/post/26877690 Though the first post still never showed up.

So I'm thinking... the first post didn't federate? Is that the issue? If so, why? Or is it just a bug and if so who do I report it to? Thanks for any feedback.

Both have federated for me, I can view both via LW

Thx, that's very interesting, I see it now too but I didn't when I first made this post. I wonder if it got caught in some kind of queue or something that held it up for 24 hours.

Anyway thanks for the report, I'll just delete the older one.

Sometimes when servers get overloaded it can build up quite a large federation queue. Their is a website that tells u the stats on it.

Very interesting.... I did some searching and found https://phiresky.github.io/lemmy-federation-state/site is that what you mean?

I think this is also related to what you're talking about: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/troubleshooting.html#other-instances-dont-receive-actions-reliably

Thanks for the lead!
