Unable to post "Thread" or "Photo" (imgur.com)

Could anyone assist in how to report this problem as an issue on codeberg?

I was only able to post this as a "Link"

Strangely, a post is made as I can view it from my profile, but it's just not visible in the magazine unless I log out.

Here is the error I receive.
The post is visible in my profile.
Not visible in the magazine.
Unless I log out, then it IS visible ...

I just don't know how to word this to report an issue. It's so strange.

I have not been able to post "Thread" or "Photo" for over a week. There is another post about this as well, but it doesn't seem to be seen by many either.

What seems to be happening is that your post is being sorted incorrectly in the default "hot" view. This was also happening when I first joined kbin, albeit without the error page when posting. Your "logged out" image shows the "newest" sort order, however.

The workaround is to immediately go back to the magazine's main page after posting and switch to the "newest" sort order. Your post should then show up at the top. Upvote your own post, and then it should appear correctly at or near the top of the default "hot" view.

This was totally the answer - it appears having any instance blocked at all is causing threads to be filtered out of view, even my own. Unblocking all domains fixes the issue for me and there are a LOT more recent posts than I was seeing previously.

Gotcha. On my end I haven't blocked any domains, so I've just been experiencing the sorting bug.

I just tried unblocking the only domain I had blocked (lemmy.nsfw) but any attempt at new threads or photos (although clearly not replies) Shows up "We Are Working On The Error".

I see your test posts on your profile. Try the workaround that I suggested above?

Threads may be working like 80% (still some reported issues from other users about first replies) after I unblocked lemmy.nsfw
