Federation on Mastodon is weird. Some information only federates if local users follow an account. Supposedly this is designed to be more lightweight on more limited servers.

It works the same on Lemmy, it’s just that on Lemmy you subscribe to groups, and on Mastodon you subscribe to users.
Groups just forward replies and other interactions it sees to subscribers.
