I accidentally clicked the little eyeball at the bottom of a post, which hid it. Now I can't even see it if I browse to the permalink.

Also, there's no number of comments on posts on the front or new pages, nor link to the comments.

I had been wondering how one "un-hid" something after pressing that button. It worries me that the answer is unintuitive...

So I looked in to it. If you go to your profile, and then "Hidden" at the top, you can find them and restore them. As of now, for me, I can also access hidden posts via a perma-link and if I have it "saved" it will show up there too.

I figured it would be something like that, but I was mostly filing this as a bug report: this behavior is not user-friendly in any way.

It's definitely worth a "bug report", but I figured I'd at least provide you with a temporary fix in the meantime :)
