update, got it to work by sending a different link and then editing the post: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/18184598

Doesn’t seem to federate. I’ve posted, waited, deleted and reposted multiple times. I’ve checked lemmy.world and beehaw and it never showed up. The original got one upvote so someone on Blahaj could see it. I’m curious if anyone has run into this problem before and how it was fixed.

Other comments and posts I’ve been doing have been federating, but specifically not this one. They usually take less than a minute maybe a couple more to federate. Since it wouldn’t show on two different instances, after waiting, I would assume it has something to do with our instance, but it could just be a me problem.

I would appreciate it if someone else could try. Thank you.

    Yeah, it goes to our instance first. But then it’s supposed to be sent to the other instances we are federated with too. When I go to those instances’ web addresses, not via Blahaj, I don’t see the article.

    It’s good to know someone else had this problem though. It happened to me once before, but reposting fixed the issue so I think that case was just lag. edit: typos
