Posts not showing up?

When I click publish on any posts they don’t seem to show up on my blog, is there some sort of delay? @support

Whats weird if I go to say https://blog.thane.black/ they don’t show up but if I go to the post directly via say Human shanty town — Thane Black's Blog or Human shanty town — Thane Black's Blog it then does. So the posts don’t show up on the main page of the blog right away or something? It’s difficult work out whats going on an resolve this issue.

Update:

Exactly 35 Minutes and 12 seconds after I made this post, the posts now show up. Note its just Lorem Gibson and not spam, an alternative to lorem ipsum incase anyone is wondering to just make test posts.

Is there anyway to not have a delay on the blog when i publish a post?

For the past year or so I’ve been experiencing a similar delay on my blog.

Are you force-reloading the page after publishing? There’s a long-standing issue with page-caching on write.as, but with a force-reload, I can generally see the new page immediately.

I do try but force-reloading doesn’t help.

Prior to one year or so ago new posts showed up on the blog’s home within a minute of publishing. The posts do show up quickly on the archive page but it takes half an hour for the home.

Yeah, force-refreshing on a write.as/* blog should fix the issue if you notice it, but otherwise on custom domains in particular you might notice up to a 30-minute delay, especially if the site has recently been viewed.

This is all from caching as mentioned, which helps sites load quickly, especially under heavy load. But I’d definitely like to fix the issue and will try to look into it soon.
