own achievements not shown in activities [solved]
For several weeks now I am missing the achievements that I get to show up in activities. No matter what settings I try (at least when I am online I'd expected them to show up).
The activities from friends are to be seen and also my other activities do, just not my achievements. It doesn't depend on the game because it happens for several different games now (as I can see the earned achievements on my profile at the last played games).

Someone out there who knows if something might be wrong with my settings or is it steam that doesn't work properly?

It's a Steam bug or misfeature (I have no way of knowing).

In your privacy settings, you have selected to not show the game times. This kills the achievements in the activity log as well.

Should be https://steamcommunity.com/id/tantetabata/edit/settings

There's the "Game Details" setting, and a checkbox below that reading "[ ] Always keep my total playtime private even if users can see my game details".

Sorry to necro this, i have similiar issue, when i share my screenshot (RE3 remake demo) and review the game, the image and the review are not showing on my activity. I have unchecked the thing above mentioned but still not fixed.

In my privacy setiing everything is 'Public" except friend list (Friend Only)

I'm still having the problem? I tried turning off game details and then back on you see I have 5k achievements in 18+ but it doesn't register in the achievement showcase?

I had this hidden knowledge forgotten. Solved it for me, thanks!
