^ It’s useless.
There’s clearly some sort of timeout window—I haven't clocked exactly how long it is—where you have to hit "post" if you want your message to actually go through on the first try.
To save my sanity, I’ve started copying everything before I even think about clicking submit. If it fails and kicks me straight to the login screen, I just hit back, hit F5, wait for the page to reload, paste my text back in, and then finally try to post it.
I’m doing the exact same dance with the Quick Reply box, too.
Even with all that extra work, it still failed on me once already.
Is it irritating? You bet it is.
PS.
And honestly, I’m starting to think this is a Windows thing. 🤔 I can't be sure, but this issue has been hanging around forever and nobody seems to be fixing it.
