cant see own post on community?

why is it that when i post on some communities i cant see my post on the community but apparently at least some other people can see and respond to it?

example is when i posted on the kgatlw community about the band called doom gong recently.

is it some kind of federation shenanigans like when a server is not federated with one but the other one is?

...now that i think about it, this is probably something thst has been asled before, i should have checked before posting this but ill still post anyways.

another question, if that is the case then is there a easy way to tell which servers are federated with which?

fixed: turns out hide read posts setting was enabled so i didnt see them, i had to change it on through the browser login, changing it in the voyager app for lemmy didnt change it.
