Expected behavior
I expect the message to show in the chat

Chatterino version

This is a behaviour of Twitch that we have no influence on. Fast chats pause and resume to limit the number of messages, and this is done by twitch server-side. You have to send your message while the chat is "moving" for the message to be delivered.

I suspect you are surprised by this behaviour because this doesn't happen in web chat. Web chat simply lies to you and makes you think your message was sent even though it was dropped by the server. Chatterino connects to the chat service differently and shows you what messages are truly delivered to chat, and can therefore show you if your message was delivered or not, which web chat cannot/will not do.

If you want to make sure your message got sent, you should check out #1181.
