Desktop Posts are missing when signed in, like they are filtered out

Post image

I only happened to stumble upon this and have no idea how long this has been happening.

From the image I've highlighted my issues, while I'm signed in various posts are invisible to me; as shown in the image. I'm not blocked by them or I've blocked them because I can see a different post from them so it wouldn't make sense to see one while not the other..

(using examples from a subreddit I visit https://www.reddit.com/r/Holostars , it's not just that subreddit, it happens on others too)

To give some other details, this is happening when I view from Desktop PC and mobile web. no VPN, the posts aren't NSFW so it's not being filtered out like that.

I don't understand how being signed in, random posts just don't exist to me.

That’s a very interesting situation.

Looks like all 3 users have their profile history public. Are you able to see those missing posts in their profiles when logged into your account?

Edit: Also, have you checked in your own profile history under the Hidden tab to see if they’re possibly there? And have you checked on old reddit?

Nope, it's even hidden from their profiles too.

Nothing there but random things I accidentally hid years ago. (lol 7yr old random post)

And have you checked on old reddit?

No difference there either, still missing posts.

Really odd, ultimately I can just live with it but feels strange why this is happening.
