[SOLVED]: The issue was caused by having “Show read posts” unticked in Settings. This will hide your own posts from you!
I recently made a post[1] to this community about a bug that I experienced and reported.
The post does not appear in the New feed for /c/lemmy_support nor does it appear in my user profile under Posts [2].
However the post does have 3 replies (from users on multiple different instances) which means that other users can see it across the fediverse, so it’s not a federation issue. (Also, my account and the community are both hosted on the same instance - lemmy.ml).
I was not subscribed to /c/lemmy_support at the time I made that post, but I am subscribed now to see if that affects my visibility of this post.
Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding how lemmy works?
Interestingly, if I view my profile while logged out, it does show the posts that I made, but when logged in it shows zero posts in my profile.

A forced refresh of the page doesn’t seem to fix it. Even this post doesn’t appear for me. If I view the page while logged out then it does appear. Very strange!
yha, I haven’t heard of anything like that. Lemmy.ml is suffering from a number of internal failures due to overload, something inconsistent may be happening.
Also clearing cache and cookies is often the first step people take, but I advise trying a second computer first (even your browser on your smartphone vs. PC)… or shifting from Chrome to FIrefox… before going and removing cookies and such.
