I'm having that problem rn too. I sometimes have to refresh posts bc they won't load. Seems unrelated to ur account.

The instance is probably having issues rn.

It seems like the issue that we're sharing with comment threads not loading the first time is likely a known issue that hasn't been fixed yet? I'm going to ping Ada abt this in the issue thread to see if she's aware there's still a problem.

Damn it. I was having so much fun on Lemmy 😭

Now I'm almost considering making a new account on a different instance. I broke something

yeah i have the same issues that you have. sometimes pages don't load and show an error instead (i also was worried that i got banned lol)

That's too bad. I actually liked how clean (?) my profile page looked. I could easily find stuff, everything was posted exactly once.
Now I have stuff that's duplicated, deleted and just sitting there. Should I just make a new account at this point? It's really bothering me

yeah i posted something this morning (about 12 hours ago) and i can confirm it double-posted. like you described, first posted with an error message (but it worked), then posted again with success message.

the weird thing is this:

the first post only included a link to the image, while the second post (which was posted in exactly the same way, just by clicking "create [post]" again) includes the image in a proper way. which makes previewing nicer. that's weird, right? i like the second type more, btw.
