Comment on This is a federated test post from a nodeBB forum.
pglpm@lemmy.ca 2 months agoThank you for letting me know! If this was the reply you mean, then unfortunately it was from Lemmy :( I still can’t see the reply I sent from Mastodon. Maybe just using the “reply” button there isn’t enough?

You might have to tag the community for it to show up.

Actually I fear that if I tag the community, my reply might appear as a new post in the community, rather than a reply in a previous post.
According to this source it may happen that replies from Mastodon simply don’t show up.

as long as it’s a reply to another post I’ve never seen that happen when mentioning the community. What the linked post says is certainly true, the federation between some platforms like Lemmy or WP and Mastodon doesn’t always seem to be as solid as it is between Mastodon instances or even other platforms that regularly interact with Mastodon.

OK let me try replying from Mastodon then. If I get it correctly now, the important point is to include also a reference to the community. So now I add that and let's see... Sorry for using your post for this test.
