Do you have ‘hide read posts’ checked in your profile? That option hides your own posts, too, because naturally you’ve read them.
... wow, I thought that would only hide from the front page. To hide even from search and profile is an odd choice. I hope that's a bug and not by design.
I didn't realise this until earlier today. I think this is the solution OP is looking for.
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.
