Although I cannot remember how to do it “correctly” I have a suspicion whats wrong with your post:
Mastodon just has a “text” for the post, some mentions and maybe media attached to it.
Lemmy also features a post title and an URL. IIRC the first paragraph of your post get converted to the title, the remainder is the post body (maybe you need to put the desired link second?!). I guess your text in the first paragraph is too long to fit in the title and the post is discarded.
