Since I can't reply to anyone and am having to refresh other instances to see them: Languages were originally set to English and Unspecified for site and my user, I tried selecting them all and nothing changed. I can't see any of your replies locally, so I'll have to reply on the main thread :/

I guess it's obvious, but I can successfully post from my test instance to federated topics as well, so I'm not sure what isn't working.
Both Mastodon and Lemmy have this problem. Make the default where the most new content is, which is going to be the federated tab and all tabs respectively.
