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?

I think the issue here is

they don’t show up under “posts” on your own profile

It makes sense to hide read posts on the main feed, but not when you're looking at a particular user?

Yes, it makes sense to hide posts in any community or all, but not one's own posts or own profile.
