I have been trying to make threads on wayfarershaven.eu, lemmy.ml, beehaw.org and lemmy.world. For weeks. Comments work but links/photos/posts do not. They obviously never actually make it to the instance… sometimes I can delete them, sometimes I can’t.

Initially I was just testing on lemmy.world and assumed it had to do with their constantly going down due to bot and DDOS attacks, but it seems like this must be a kbin problem.

It’s becoming pretty tiring. I don’t really want to bother participating anymore if I’ll never be able to post anywhere other than kbin.social.

    I’ve noticed that if I comment on my own post it federates. Even if I then immediately then delete the comment on my own post.

    I only noticed that the other day though. But it does mean that posts I posted via Kbin about a week ago on lemmy.world have now federated and have had upvotes

      Wow you’re right. I commented on one of my invisible posts from yesterday and it was instantly available on its home instance. That’s a wild fix, but I’m very glad to know about it. Thanks!
