On the instance I’m using, my comments and posts have disappeared. It is ok?

I had a few helpful comments here that I saved, but it’s all gone.

Having got used to the stability in Mastodon I was surprised by such things in Lemmy as:

Unable to log into your account through the app after an update on the server.

Unable to log into your account through the app if your instance version is out of date.

Just because you’ve created a post or written a comment doesn’t mean other Lemmy users will see it.

I have to constantly check to see if my messages are visible on other instances.

You also need to have many sub-accounts on different instances in case some of the primary instances are unavailable.

    Ya sometimes my posts magically are deleted or hidden or pictures don’t upload. But still a great experience for me due to the wholesomeness.

    And it’s awesome that you can use pictures in comments.

      tbf reddit also allows that with markdown

          people don’t use it for some reason ¯_(ツ)_/¯
          all third party clients display markdown images fully inline, all official clients either require a click or show a small thumbnail

      Was reading comments through the RaccoonForLemmy app and your comment looked like this:

      After a while, the app froze and closed by itself. However, after I reopened the app everything looked normal.
