Unexpected comment behaviour between Mastodon and Lemmy (lemmy.sdf.org)

My replies via Mastodon to Lemmy posts don't get distributed as expected. For example:

Original post: https://lemmy.ml/post/11552444
A reply via Lemmy: https://ttrpg.network/comment/4965852
My reply to that: https://hachyderm.io/@otl/111887721960075860

It seems my reply only shows in these Lemmy servers:

lemmy.ml (the server of the group to which the post was made)
lemmy.world (the server of the post's author)
ttrpg.network (the server of the comment's author)

From some other lemmy servers, my comment is not present:

lemmy.sdf.org: https://lemmy.sdf.org/comment/8124910
lemmy.one: https://lemmy.one/comment/6912806
aussie.zone: https://aussie.zone/comment/6414209

I expected that my reply would show on any other Lemmy server with subscriptions to !privacy@lemmy.ml. Does that make sense? I'm hoping to help troubleshoot federation like this as I'm super excited about ActivityPub and what it means for the internet! :)

I think the instances would already need to be federated?

Ah! Interesting.

Which instances? Do you mean hachyderm.io with, say, lemmy.one?

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago

Your home instance I believe.
