So I had made my profile invisible the last year or so as I took some time out. I had been under the impression that it just kind of deactivated to a degree and that my photos would remain stored, but having made it visible again they're in fact all gone for me. It's a shame as I had a wide enough amount of organic content, both picture and video and while I have some of it stored elsewhere this was what I considered to be my main bank.
Time to start over or anything I'm missing here?

Have flagged this thread to MM for a difinitive answer on the images, but in general, never rely on just an uploaded copy of anything, always have local copies of anything you want to keep, ideally more than one copy on different devices in different physical locations, to protect against fire and theft risks.

Sorry yes, once you make your account invisible, all media is permanently deleted.
