Looking from lemmy.blahaj.zone, it looks like those posts didn't federate. I don't see them on your profile from here but if I look at your account on your instance I see them.

That’s so odd. I don’t get it. /gen

It’s not like blahaj.zone and lemmy.studio are defederated from each other, because then I wouldn’t be able to post on this sub in the first place, right?

Maybe it’s because I started using Memmy the same day I posted those posts? Idk.

My guess is you posted them while blahaj.zone was down. When lemmy.studio tried to send the post over it timed out and it never tried again.

But that's only a guess. I would have to actually dig into the federation algorithms and know how exactly lemmy.studio is configured to be sure.

I guess. It would also explain why my posts didn’t show up on the other c/196, because lemmy.world is also experiencing outages. Odd that the outages would happen at the same time, though.

Lemmy.world has been getting DDoS'd. I think it has been having more downtime than blahaj.zone.

It's definitely not your client, Memmy. If it was the posts wouldn't of made it to lemmy.studio. The issue is somewhere between lemmy.studio and the instances hosting the communities.
