There are posts missing under my Community profile.

In my profile, I presently have 5 posts listed under Posts and Replies.  These are the 5 posts that I posted today.  But above that, under my username, it says I have 8 posts.  Why are only 5 posts actually listed?  Is this another error, or have old posts been deleted for some reason?

    Most likely, yes. They may have been part of discussions that were no longer relevant (i.e. features that have changed or been removed, etc.). Or perhaps they were in a category that has been locked/removed, since the community has been gone through a couple of iterations over the last decade and a half.

    They were likely part of discussions that have been archived over time.
