[BUG] Create post page redirects to home on load

Version/Commit

Steps To Reproduce

1. Navigate to https://crowd-up00.vercel.app/create (or click the "Create Post" button on home page)
2. Observe the page loading
3. The browser automatically redirects to https://crowd-up00.vercel.app/ (home page)

Expected Behavior

The create post page should load successfully, displaying the post creation form with all fields:

• Post type selection (Bug Report, Feature Request, Complaint)
• Company/App field with search functionality
• Title field (max 150 characters)
• Description field (max 2000 characters) with markdown support
• Priority selector (Low, Medium, High, Critical)
• Publish and Cancel buttons

Actual Behavior

The page redirects to home immediately after loading, regardless of authentication status. The user is authenticated on the home page and can see other authenticated features (profile menu, etc.), but cannot access the create post page. The redirect happens before the form can be displayed.
