Solved View only topics that the user has created

I have been asked how to set up Kunena so that a user can see only the posts he/she has created. Obviously, a moderator would be allowed to view all posts. Is there a recognized and recommended way to do this?

Use the My Topics menu item.

The request was in the context of restricting access to any other posts. In other words, is there a way to block a user from ever seeing any posts except those he/she created. Is there a standard way to do that?

Sounds like you want a help desk system, yes?

the answer is NO.

It is theoretically possible to create a Kunena template and restrict users to being able to view their own topics and no-one else's. I have been thinking about building a Kunena template that would achieve this kind of result.

Under the current design of Kunena, it is possible to assign each user their own, separate forum category. By giving each user their own, separate forum category, you could restrict access using Joomla ACLs—you would need to create a unique Joomla ACL identifier for each user on your website.

In practical terms, however, 810 is correct. The current design of Kunena does not make things easy (or possible) to transform it from a general-purpose discussion forum into a help desk product.
