welcome to the forum

this is not a bug, but a result of how large the accuracy circles associated with your records are. For example, take this one: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/201644518. The current accuracy is 53.64 km. I can’t remember the exact threshold, but observations with an accuracy value of ~30-35 km or higher do not get shown as pins on the map
