Basically what the title says. My profile has only ever said that I’ve never made any posts, despite having made several in different servers (including this, my local one). They’re not new posts either and I’ve made them across many days.

Even more than this, I actually seem to struggle to even find my posts by other means. I tried the search system, filtering to me in the “creator” field and all communities, searching for a key word that I know is in a post I made. And I know that post is visible because I got several replies in it and was able to reply to those comments. But I can’t even find my own comments I made in that thread! The only results are from different threads.

Fortunately, I can find the post via my browser’s history. Here’s the post I was trying to find, which I cannot find through any means within Lemmy itself. https://lemm.ee/post/930728

It’s not just this post, BTW. I can’t find any of my posts via search or profile.

    Took me a while to figure that one out! For some reason Lemmy hides your own posts too. My “solution” for this is to save each of my posts as it is posted, otherwise it disappears and I have no record of it unless someone comments or I unhide read posts.

    Not hiding read posts is not an option for me— I don’t want to see the same stuff every time I look at Lemmy.

    I’m waiting for 1) option to not hide my own posts and 2) mark read on scroll.
