Where did my question go?

I just now posted a question to the community. Now I cannot find it. I tried "My Subscriptions", but the only question there is a month old.

I asked a similar question yesterday. When it didn't show up today, I figgered I'd forgotten to click something and simply posted another question. Now I cannot find either.

Where are my old posts? I have asked and received answers for many questions over the years. Have they all gone away?

This Community Support bulletin Board used to be very useful. Is it no longer?

The SiteWare has been "sick" for the past week or so - MySubs "list" is just one of the misbehaviors

I see one post from the past week using Google Site Search

"Gil Dawson" site:discussions.apple.com - Google Search

Is this it?

When do Notes sync? - Apple Community

this is NOT in YOUR MySubs list

Encountering the same issue. A thread I made didn't appear in my subs so I thought it disappeared and made a new one, which also doesn't show up in my subs despite being subbed to it and it shows up in the forum: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250835640

Is Apple aware of this and planning to fix it soon?

Typing is ruined - Apple Community

FWIW, Apple is not gonna change back, no matter what

I too thought that typing was more difficult - until I noticed the "nuances"

You will, as I did, get used to it

How do you get used to not being able to select text around a link due to its huge bounding box, or the text menu not appearing when it should or the cursor not jumping to where your finger taps? Anyway, in relation to this topic, hope Apple fixes the subscription issue soon so people don't need to rely on an external search engine to find their content. 😂

One step forward two steps backward is the "standard" for ASC. Google search has always been better than Apple's search. Testing isn't a priority for ASC developers. Hopefully, the problem will move to some other area of ASC soon.

Thank you, ChitlinsCC, for the explanation.

I feel much better knowing that I am not alone, and that Apple itself has not simply, suddenly disappeared. ( I confess to a fascination with dystopian movies.)

And thanks especially for the workaround! That's going to be quite useful.
