Why does "hide read posts" apply to my own submitted posts? (lemmy.world)

It's strange and unintuitive that my own submitted posts are hidden with this basic feature. Given the slow pace on some communities as Lemmy grows, it gets really repetitive without the ability to filter out read posts. On the other side though, the ability to review my posts and check back on them seems pretty basic as a feature.

Is there a deliberate reason Lemmy functions like this?

Don't you get reply notifications? I get reply notifications.

I also don't check "hide read", though, so we're clearly using the platform differently.

Reply notifications serve the immediate purpose to take you back to the thread if you want, but having a personal post history that is blank because I prefer fresh content in communities is strange to me especially in a nacent project with limited content on many communities.
