Lagging identification. An indexing bug?

In the last few days I noticed that my bird observations (which are typically ID’ed as RG by one or more people within a few hours) are currently lagging several days. I first thought this may be due to lower levels of activity in the US due to the holiday but then I checked the filtered view in the Identify page and noticed that this gives 0 matches. Am I missing anything or is this an indexing issue? https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/identify?taxon_id=3&user_id=radrat

Any of your IDs that you’ve added an ID to will be marked as reviewed (personally reviewed), so check that reviewed box, or change it to “Reviewed=any” in the filters, and your observations should show up for you on that page: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/identify?reviewed=any&taxon_id=3&user_id=radrat

As far as the question about typical time to ID or any potential causes - there’s always a bit of an increased delay during the northern hemisphere summer months (and with those giant spikes being the City Nature Challenge):

No prob at all! Not super intuitive to me either when I first tried to use Identify to check out my own obs.
