"Open" discussion posts are not shown when "Open" filter is applied

I'm not when exactly this was introduced but today I noticed that some of the discussion posts in one of the repo I maintain doesn't show up in the discussions home page or even when manually selecting the "Open" filter, but they are visible if all filters are cleared. Below are couple screenshots and links to better understand what I mean:

• With default "Open" filter:
  https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions
  

• Without any filters:
  https://github.com/pocketbase/pocketbase/discussions?discussions_q=
  

Notice that in the second screenshot the 2, 3 and 4th posts are NOT closed but they are not visible when the default "Open" filter is applied.

Edit: another user also just couple minutes prior this discussion posted something similar in https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/187193.

This appears to be a regression in how the Discussions “Open” filter is evaluated. The affected posts are not closed, yet they are excluded when the default “Open” filter is applied and only appear when all filters are cleared. This suggests the filter logic may be incorrectly excluding certain discussion states (possibly category‑specific or recently introduced metadata). Since another maintainer reported the same behavior in #187193, this looks like a platform‑level issue rather than repository configuration. A confirmation of the expected filter behavior or an investigation into recent Discussions filtering changes would be helpful.
