  What about !diyelectronics@programming.dev?

  I tried there but my posts never showed up. Tried twice. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. I’m on old.lemmy.world so it looks like old reddit.

    That’s odd. Any error?

    Federation from your instance Lemmy.world to the instance the community is on (programming.dev) is healthy, so that doesn’t seem to be the issue.

    How far did you get? Any error?

    My guess would be that you’ve tried to upload an image that is over the size limit - I think this is imposed by your own instance (Lemmy.world), and I’m not sure what the size limit is but I think 5MB per image is pretty common. If you drop the image size or upload elsewhere then link it, does that work?

      I just hit submit and it spat me back out to the new posts, but mine wasn’t there.

      I wasn’t trying to directly upload an image, just directly link to an imgur gifv.

        maybe the frontend is buggy. did you try with the default frontend?

        Hmm odd. Maybe just try again?
