Browser: Firefox, UBlock Origin and Dark Reader Extension, the latter of which is disabled. Work mode is also completely disabled. The bug also makes it appear as if I'm offline, when that is not the case.

Screenshot:
ETA:
I disabled Ublock Origin, and the bug still happens, so it isn't being caused by that extension.
Edit 2:
Bug also happens on Opera Browser (Android)

Continue onwards toward the next day

That's not a bug that's just how it's implemented. I don't know exactly how it works in detail but I'd guess the post that gets created right after posting is just a placeholder post so it doesn't need to refresh the whole page. This placeholder post doesn't show all your information because it's just created locally in your browser, if you refresh the page it shows your real post. In theory they could also fetch your data from the server with asynchronous requests but I guess they were too lazy to implement that.

Kinda weird, but gotcha.
