Where is the best place to post my dev log and where can I read others'?

Hello,
Where is the correct location to post game dev updates?
I see some people are posting their updates  to the community chat but I also found the devlog option shown below. 
Is there some place I can read other peoples dev logs? I am curious what people are working on and it will help understand what kind of progress I should be sharing!

Hi, I've been writing some stuff with that feature. You can go to the itch pages for each game, and their devlogs should appear listed below the description

The published games are visible to me, but I do not see the dev logs for those who are still working on their projects. Because I haven't published anything on my game page yet, my board is set to private. I am currently working on my first dev log. Is that what we are supposed to do?

Definitely the devlog option. If it’s in the community chat, I almost certainly won’t see it.

Thank you both for your help! To make sure I am following the proper procedure can you confirm that this is right?

  1. Create a new project game page within itch.io
  2. Use the devlog feature to write about your progress on the game.
  3. Make your game page and devlogs public, even if nothing is playable yet. This is to allow people to read the devlogs since they can't access them without having access to the game page.
  4. Use the "Submit your project" button within the 'Continue Your Game 7' to add your page to the jam submissions. Even though the game has not been completed, it is listed so others can see your progress and read your devlogs.
  5. Make a final dev log stating that the game is playable!

Because I am only seeing playable projects right now, I am not sure if my understanding of step 4 is correct. I would appreciate it if you could let me know if there is something I am missing or if the steps I listed are correct.

Thank you!

Hello! Can you please let me know if I am understanding the process of the Game Jam?

Best to submit it as soon as you create it, just to make sure. And yes, use the devlog feature to write about your progress on the game. You don’t have to make it playable, just document your progress in the devlogs.

Apologies for the late reply, I was otherwise occupied.
