 It’s so weird how i can almost always predict in advance what notes of mine won't load.

 The original note doesn't appear to be on any relays.  Was that a note that you posted or someone else's note that you were replying to? 
 Original note that I posted. And I have conducted many tests - so I have no doubts about what’s going on here. Wish I could spread the word to alert others. Omg, the ppl here are so gullible.  
 OK, does the original note still show up locally for you in your cache?  If so, in Iris could you select broadcast event on that note.  I believe this should resend it to your relays.  Once done could you screenshot the note and reply here with the pic so that we can see if there are any keywords that might be triggering spam filters?

Do you currently have an unreliable internet and/ or vpn connection that could be briefly failing while you're posting sometimes? If not, your relay list appears to be small so there may be some value to adding some additional large relays such as: wss://relay.damus.io and/ or wss://nostr-pub.wellorder.net
 
 S…my internet and my VpN work great. As does my ability to predict which notes won’t make it. 
 You can also try adding wss://n.ok0.org - I run it and can tell you if your note gets sent to it.  
 I am unable to add relays. They show until I refresh the page. Note: I’m using brave browser on iPhone and accessing using both the old.iris and the snort version. Additionally, I occasionally-rarely use my brave browser in Firefox on my laptop. Also…  I have a pretty good idea what notes aren’t going to make it through. There’s only been a time or two that I called it wrong. Lastly it’s refreshing to finally see a few others in here to take what’s going on seriously. The trending bigwhigs talk a good game but they blow me off and the i Reese developer blocked me after I reached out to him in telegram. I only msg’d him twice. Once to ask for help and the 2nd time telling him that his lack of concern was telling. Then poof! Blocked!

 After you add a relay in old.iris.to are you clicking the button "save relays publicly"? 
 I have tried both ways many times and I’ve tried in both old and new snort Iris. Haven’t tried in a few days though and I’ll try again shortly. Unfortunately my life is hard and I’ve been sounding the alarm bells on this for awhile now. Pretty much ready to give up on this. Everyone is so damn sure that this place is perfect that they lack the vigilance to make sure that it is and that it stays that way.  
 You could also try another client, https://satellite.earth is good, I use it. 
 So you think I reese is zanzooring me? 
 I have no idea, trying these things will help you rule it out. 
 my only concern is that using my private key on numerous nostr clients seems like a Security risk. Eventually I’ll land on one that’s run by the man - if I’m not already. 
 It's possible, people recommend using those browser extensions for that reason, but then you have to trust the browser extension. I self-host a satellite.earth instance and from what I've seen it's legit. 
 WTH, I’ll try it. Let’s find out if it’s I reese doing this to me… thanks 
 I had a similar problem when I was starting this keypair, but I think what was happening was, the old relay list kept overwriting the new one. I assume relays store that information somehow, so maybe there was a bad one that was screwing things up.

I didn't really do anything to stop it, it just gradually stopped breaking over time, so maybe the same will happen for you. 
 stopped using iris for these like reasons a while ago, amethyst is good but nostr needs improvement in anticensorship
