Support / questions about Lemmy.
Now another odd thing is happening. I added some languages and I can see my posts, but now the comments on this post have now disappeared for me.
The other poster solved it for me. Are you sure you have English selected?
It's very strange. I saw the other user's comment (thanks by the way! though I can't respond to you anymore), and changed my language to English and Undetermined, and my interface language to English, and I can see all my own posts and previous posts, but for some reason the comments in your posts are completely empty now:
Yeah it's weird. Maybe you can't see them because I posted them when I still had Japanese selected? If you re-enable Japanese could you see them?
That was it! I guess whatever language you have selected when you make your post is the one you need to have selected when you want to see your post or comment again. A bit odd. I, maybe stupidly, just went and selected every single language. I wonder if after I make this comment with every language selected, if I deselect one, will I still be able to see this post?
Ok, after spending a good few minutes selecting and saving every language on the list (there was some odd behaviour with only the visible languages staying selected after you tick them, so if you scrolled the selected languages off the screen without saving settings, they would get deselected), I go back after checking and see every language has been deselected again other than English and Undetermined, and I can still see all the posts and comments. I guess it was only momentary?
I came here to ask the same thing. I made a community, made a few starter posts and also a lemmy support post, I can see all my comments and can see on my profile that I have made 9 posts all in all, but can't see any of them (it's the same on Connect, Jerboa and browser). I can still access posts I have made comments on through the comments on my profile, but they don't show up either on my profile or on the community I created.
Edit: I also just made a new test post on my own community and that also doesn't show up anywhere (though it added the post to the total number of posts I made on my profile).
Yeah, no idea. And now when I go to the PS5 group I can only see one post, there were hundreds there a few days ago. Makes me think the site is probably just struggling under the wave of new users.
On lemmy.ml webapp, when I see both of your comments, you have the language set to "Japanese" 日本語 on the comments, yet they are clearly in English. This may be related to why you aren't seeing anything.
Yep, that was it. Selecting Japanese seems to have deselected English. Weird. Added English and my posts are visible again, thank you.
That's probably it. I thought I had it set to English and Japanese, not sure why Japanese would take precedence, I'll look into it.
