This happens so much. I lose about half of every post I compose and since I’m on my phone it’s too much of a pain in the ass to rewrite everything. Think of all the precious content the board is missing.
Please fix, this has been ongoing for a few years now!

if it's a connection timeout, just reload the page. it may warn you that you're resending a POST request -- or whatever wording they choose to use -- but you can just click ok and reload anyway. You could also just copy long posts to your clipboard before posting.
also, if your browser doesn't let you resend the request, then just kys.
What if actually people are writing hilarious jokes but then instead write a essay about a scientific problem because the post problem reminded them? Hm? What then?

Upon reload my browser takes me to the page for composing a new reply but it’s empty.
Why does it do this though? Also, I notice it’s worse during my morning hours.

Yeah known bug but tteh is too busy bugchasing irl to track down forum bugs. Always copy any lengthy posts you type before clicking submit in case this happens.

Have you tried using a different browser? This looks more like an issue with your network connection. It's not a Minichan error. Nothing in the logs that I can see; it's not the standard "tubes twisted error".

Yes, it’s across multiple networks my work WIFI, my mobile, my home WiFi. I don’t think it’s something on my end, other users have reported it as well
This isn’t something that’s always happened - just in the last three years or so

It's strange though because, unless Safari is showing you this incorrectly, this is a network error on your phone. This isn't a server error. It's not between you and Minichan, but between you and your local network. It's your phone not being connected to the Internet.
People report similar errors but nobody has ever reported specifically this, I don't think. They get the tubes twisted error or a token timeout or something after waiting to compose a reply for too long. These are server-side.
I'll see if I can replicate the issue somehow but I really can't see how anything on our side would produce this error.
