Thank you - I'll think on it a bit, and possibly do that. I appreciate the reply!

I see your reply on lemmy!

Thank 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?

the images are not loading for us, maybe it's because of the maintenance mode?

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

Thanks for the tip! let me try that :)

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.

I put together a brief explainer here 🙂

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 though, 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.

@73ms 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.@fediverse

You were perfectly right, it worked! 🥳 Thank you so much for this extremely useful advice!

Hello from my freshly set-up PieFed instance!
Let's see if this comment reaches you... :-)

Woohoo forums!!

Sorry I don’t have an answer to your question at the moment but I just would like to add that I, too am implementing activitypub in my blog and if you’d like to chat my DMs are open :)
