Is Steemit censoring my PIZZAGATE / Wikileaks related post, or is it the Deep State?

I signed up for Steemit about 2-3 weeks ago. I finally completed my first Pizzagate / Wikileaks-related piece of investigative journalism after long hours of formatting on Steemit. When I hit the "post" button, I am getting the error message you can see in the video.

I've never posted anything before, I've only commented once and upvoted 3 times until yesterday over the past few weeks before this happened. All I have done has been formatting my article a few hours per day the past week or two in the editing box. Does anyone know when I will be able to post my first article or why this is happening? I've tried from 2 different computers over the past 24 hours and later at the library in a different part of town.

Am I being censored? It also has a lot of photos - but the post is under 64,000 max character limit - Is the file too large?This is extremely discouraging because since it is in Steemit format / Markdown I can't just post it at my blog right away because I will have to spend hours reformatting it, re-uploading pictures, etc. And I can't earn cryptocurrency on my blog. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm resteeming this post and let's see if that works a little

Thank you so much!

Thank you for being here :)

Thank you. I was devastated yesterday after spending more than 40 hours per week the past couple of weeks putting this article together, and still not being able to share it with anyone on this platform. I wanted to give STEEMIT an exclusive scoop which is why I haven't shared it on any other sites yet. It's the most important article I've ever written and it needs to get out.

There was an issue with the bandwith calculation formula, and a softfork patch 19.1 has been released by the dev team. Some nodes are still running 19.0, so you may still occasionally get a bandwidth error if your transaction hits a 19.0 node. Within a few days, hopefully most of the nodes will be upgraded to 19.1 and the error will go away. In the meantime, if you get an "exceeded bandwidth" error, just try again in a little bit.

I understand your disappointment! I advice you to join steemit chat to ask the pioneers about the solution to this problem. In the mean time let me see what I can do from my side. Let me approach people from my side on chat regarding a fix to this issue.

Probably its because you are a newbie and you have a bandwidth limit which I believe will gradually increase.
I'm sure there is no third party which is blocking you neither steemit is blocking you.
Curious to see your upcoming posts.

Put more STEEM POWER on your account.. it will make your article you post more valuable. I actually would like to read your article about pizzagate! try again please :)

Thank you very much!
