finger doesn't seem to work when i use it outside of my ssh session

Hello, It seems like finger recognized .project and .plan files for other users on tilde.team, but not me. Whenever I use finger from outside this session, it doesn't seem to recognize my plan or project files, but when I simply type 'finger ethan' when logged in via ssh, everything works. I'm not sure why this is. If anyone knows why this is happening, please let me know.
