I just made some links 3-4 days ago and they're shown in search console.

However, they're not indexed in google. Wtf? I have never experienced this before. (not that I check GSC often)

I can understand if it's indexed but not shown in GSC.

Anyone having this issue?
 
It takes between 4 days and 4 weeks for your brand new website to be crawled and indexed by Google.
After a page is discovered, Google tries to understand what the page is about. This process is called indexing. Google analyzes the content of the page, catalogs images and video files embedded on the page, and otherwise tries to understand the page.
Google doesn't guarantee that it will crawl (or thus index) every URL of your website. If your website is new or you've recently added a lot of new pages to your site, those may not yet be indexed. Pages that Google will often not index include: Blog category pages.
There are many factors that determines how quickly it will be indexed by google.

I'm not indexing my site if you read it carefully.
I trying to index backlinks.
 
They must be indexed in certain countries but not your current location. Try checking with VPN on for the US, GB, AU, etc.

I don't see it as an issue (more backlinks is better, whether or not they are indexed), but yeah, I just noticed this, too recently

many times over the last few years.... old links are present in GSC on a consistent basis but do not show up in google index

This can only mean 1 thing since I just made these backlinks 3-4 days ago.
They were indexed then appear in GSC and then they got de-indexed?
 
Google crawled your links, sometimes the index may not be updated for your location.
 
I do have many spammy links (mainly created by some competitors) showing in GSC but none of them is actually indexed,
This means these links are actually crawled and either not indexed yet or simply google decided to not indexed them
