Profanity: How to add oneself as contact? (lemmy.ml)

On dino and conversations for example I can chat to myself on a chat to my own JID. As simple as that. On profanity I can not do /roster add <my_jid>, nothing gets added, although there's no failure either. And I can't do either /sub request <my_jid>, it gives the error:

Error Invalid presence type

And if I include something something to the chat to myself on dino for example, then my JID shows up as unsubscribed, and if I do /omemo start <my_jid> I can't se whatever I posted on dino or somewhere else. But this is weird, because whenever connecting to my account my JID doesn't show up as a possible contact to chat with, and I can do /omemo start <my_jid> but it still shows up weird...

First off, the community.xmpp.net instance is long dead and there is little point in posting there.

As for Profanity, I am not sure that is an supported feature. Many xmpp clients actually do not support self-messages for various reasons and it is a rather recent phenomenon that people started abusing messengers as personal notebooks, so often no-one even thought about implementing this.
