Did anyone else 'lose' a bunch of comments/posts? (self.chat)

12 comments fedilink hide all child comments

My profile currently shows that I've made 1 post and 11 comments, which tracks with what I remember doing, but only two of those comments (and no post) seem to be showing up in my profile when I view it. Has anyone else had part of their lemmy history vanish into the ether?

If everyone has English (or whatever) and Undetermined selected then they should be able to see both English (or whatever) and Undetermined, right? So what's wrong with posting as English? If everyone posts as Undetermined then everyone will get spammed with every language.

Yes, that is correct, but people sometimes deselect the languages in their profile by mistake and then wonder why they can't see certain posts... or any posts. Undetermined is a safe bet, because the software prompts you if you deselect Undetermined, which is not true about the other languages.
