If you're using sddm-greeter, have a look at the "/etc/sddm.conf" file.
There's a "MinimumUID" parameter which is set by default to 1000. This
means that users must have that user ID or higher to be displayed in the
login screen. If a user has a UID of <1000, then they're not displayed.

If you're using lightdm, then the file is "/etc/lightdm/users.conf" and
the equivalent parameter is "minimum-uid".

You may have buggered that at one time to display lower numbers or
(possibly) your greeter got changed from one to the other and is now
using a config that's not the same.

IIRC, somewhere around F22 or something, the default minimum UID used
when you create users bumped to 1000 from the previous value of 500. I
use XFCE/lightdm and my machines have all been continually upgraded. My
users were created long ago with UIDs based on the 500 number, so I have
"minimum-uid=500" in my "/etc/lightdm/users.conf" file.
