I’m seeing a lot of local communities that have very few or zero posts showing up when I click on them. I noticed this after I posted yesterday and got a few answers to my post, but when I go to that community my post doesn’t show up. The sidebar says the community has 80+ posts but I can only see about half a dozen and they are all 1-2 months old. I have checked some other communities that I’ve seen posts from in my feed in the past, and now they show completely blank, even when looking at Old. What’s going on?
I’m seeing this in two different browsers (Firefox and Edge). I tried clearing cookies in Firefox, no difference, and I had never used Edge here until I tested it out today, but it shows the same problem.
Perhaps some app changed your settings to only show certain languages? As your posting seems to be English but the language setting is not.
Trying not logged in, anonymous, is often easier than clearing cookies.
I have it at the default Undetermined, which is what was recommended when I first joined Lemmy. The issue turned out to be the ‘hide read posts’ settings, which doesn’t seem to be functioning properly. After changing that setting I am seeing tons of posts in my subbed communities that I never saw or read.
