But unless I am misunderstanding you, I think you've gone beyond the scope of merely replicating the a.gup.pe or friendica group facility for platforms other than lemmy/friendica.

Yes, I probably went a little further, but it was to better contextualize the very nature of a platform like Lemmy.
To be more succinct, I can simply say that Lemmy (unlike a Friendica group/forum or a GUP group) doesn't support immediate crossposting (basically you can't mention several Lemmy communities to have your post published on each of them) . This limitation must not be removed because it is the basis of the anti-spam check by default which must be present on a link aggregator.
This is the biggest systemic difference between Lemmy communities and Friendica groups.
And crossposting has become the most important function that the fediverse has recognized to GUP groups. Even with excesses that often go beyond the limits of "fediquette"...

@notizie@poliverso.org @informapirata@mastodon.uno @atomicpoet@calckey.social right. Thanks!!
I didn’t know this. So if I “at” two lemmy communities in one post, it won’t work. Huh.
Though I’ve gotta say, I’m not sure it’s the most vital feature. A quote post or link would probably be sufficient for me.

if you mention two Lemmy communities from a Fediverse social account, only one of them will re-share your thread. On the other hand, if you mention only one Lemmy community after the first paragraph (which will become the title/subject of the Lemmy thread) and in the body of the message you mention as many Friendica forum groups as you want, the result will be (almost always 😅) the posting on the Lemmy community and re-sharing on all the Friendica groups/forums you mentioned
