Comments won’t post randomly, I try to upload images and some work and others don’t, then when I try to repost none will upload at all (I’ve resized my images too). Currently, trying to load this community, it will not show any posts but I can see them on my feed. Am I doing something wrong? I feel like it’s been this way for a week and it’s making me lose interest in the platform if I can hardly interact with it anymore, it sucks
edit: just wanna note that I know the devs have been working their asses off to support the wave of like, tens of thousands of users; I just wasn’t sure if there is a secret cheat that I’m not privy to that would help my experience since it’s been consistently buggy for me
Try a smaller instance. Lemmy.ml is really large and so you’ll run into more of those types of issues. I’m sure in the near future they’ll get it all working smoothly but for now best to join a smaller one.

That sounds like an overloaded server. If you not willing to put up your own server, you might try a few of the smaller public instances.
There is only so much traffic the larger instances can handle, and right now it seems like everyone and every community is on only a handful.
Yeah that’s what I figured but just wanted to get other opinions since its been most of the week. It wasn’t nearly this bad when I first started using the platform but I guess the “official reddit exodus” really took its toll even with the big server upgrades. I’m looking at other instances, but it seems like any instance that isn’t the big ten or so are pretty dead with very few communities. I also want to be federated with lemmygrad and not exploding heads and that seems kinda tough to find though I could stand to look harder.
I was on Jerboa but tried Connect during a Jerboa outage. I haven’t had too many issues since.
I tried that and another app right now but it’s telling me that my password is wrong! So I’m nervous to try and reset it right now Guess I’ll try again tomorrow sigh
Make sure you check which instance you are on. Jerboa will show you lemmy.ml by default (I think?) While other apps probably show lemmy.world by default . Make sure you set the instance to where you actually registered your account.
