Just to confirm, by "people are not getting my post" you mean people joining your pod? Maybe they have stopped following you since joining? Have you tested the auto follow on join works by creating a second account and verifying the new account follows your primary account? – jaywink Mar 14 '15 at 10:15

On diaspora*, when a user shares with another user, that user will only be able to see any limited posts from this point onwards, not any previously posted posts. The reason for this is simple. Since a limited post in history was never shared with the new connection, it is not visible.
It is not possible to edit the visibility of old posts. If you want to write posts that new connections also see, they should be made as public posts.
