    Kinda off topic, but there are a lot of replies on mastodon.social that aren’t showing on lemmy.

    Why? Isn’t federation supposed to consolidate these discussions?

      This is just a link to the post on Mastodon.social, to appear here, OP would’ve had to tag the community on the same mastodon post.

      This was a cross post rather than a direct post to the community so it acts the same as if its posted on two different communities here like a lemmy cross post (with different threads based on the community the post is on)

      If someone on mastodon commented on this version of the thread their comment would show up here
