I can’t see my own posts in my profile. However, when I disable “hide read posts”, they do show up.
I think it’s not optimal having to change that setting to see my own posts. Or am I alone in this?
It’s a frequently requested improvement, you are not alone. But there are no workarounds that I’m aware of either. There’s enough apps out there that maybe one of them has better handling of hidden posts… but I follow a lot of lemmy app news and I haven’t noticed any reports of it being done well.
