Hello! I use 2 Lemmy accounts. The first one for everyday use, the second one for specific, more anonymous use. They both are on the same instance and follow the same community’s. But when I look at the same community, with both accounts, I see not especially different posts, but on one account the oldest Post is 7 months old, and with the second account I see every recent post.
It’s like im shadow banned or something. Yes im 100% sure its the same community. Even if i go on the profile of the second account I can’t see any post this account made… Im confused…
the second one for specific, more anonymous use.
Just say you have a porn alt, I and many others would respect you more for it.
That “holding down the CTRL key and clicking” thing without saying so in the interface is awful UX design.
I had a similar problem: I couldn’t comment in some communities - turned out the only allowed language was “undefined”, and I had defined “English”, which was the apparently used language there.
Do you have any filters in place on either account? Also, are you using your instance’s web UI, or are you using an app or other frontend of some sort?
Language settings. If you set one to English it blocks “undefined” posts.
Also possibly your sorting order is different and it just looks like posts are missing.
Neat, never realized that was a thing. I guess my language is set to undefined because I commonly see stuff written in German, French Spanish and sometimes even Portuguese.
THIS! Thank you so much! Wow. So I changed to my preferred language and now I can see every post in the community I mentioned. But can I set more than one language? What about English communities? Everything seems normal so far, but I don’t want to risk losing a lot of content because of my language settings.
Edit: I had to Edit this comment, because I replied to you while my I had activated my second language. Interesting. So if someone has set his Language to Belgian only for example, you will never see his post, even if he wrote it in English. But you can set multiple language by holding the CRTL Key and select you preferred language.
Check the language settings on your accounts.
This is the answer. Thank you!
If they have the same home instance…hmm.
Does one account maybe have the NSFW filter on and the other not?
Nope. They both have exactly the same settings.
Make sure your settings are the same. eg. There’s a “show bot accounts” and a “show NSFW” toggle (I think there might be a "hide read posts"too). It could even be as simple as your sort order being different.
I compared both setting. They are the same. I thought maybe it’s Tesseract fault, but no.
… and from those two accounts you do not block specific users or block specific Communities or block specific instances ?
… maybe it has to do with language settings for these accounts.
Nope. Both accounts are just a few days old. I just blocked 2-3 nsfw communities with my main account.
I just reset my settings for both accounts. Didn’t worked.
Looks like you will have to contact the administrators of your instance … maybe your instance has a community for support from admins ?
I just saw that’s the case for multiple community’s. Little bit annoying cause I don’t want to switch my account just to see every post in a community.
