> This is a quirk of ActivityPub, not specifically Mastodon. There are currently projects in the works to remedy this, and I think a few fediverse software already fix this behavior using server side workarounds.

Is this issue currently solved in Lemmy?

I think Lemmy solved this, but there are not enough federated activity to make this apparent to me.

The documentation has significantly improved since I last attempted to run a Lemmy Instance. You may find some of your curiosities answered here: join-lemmy.org/docs/en/introdu

I'll update this thread after I do some testing and find a conclusive result.

Update:

It appears that Lemmy solved this issue. On Mastodon the user is considered the first-class actor, but on Lemmy the community is the first-class actor. Communities send a public announce whenever they are interacted with. This allows remote instances that are federated with the community to have full visibility of all posts, comments, and interactions from remote users.

Technical goodness:

Oho, I found this well of knowledge. it's a great read if you want to get into the nitty gritty weeds of how Lemmy federation works. The devs did a great job with the architecture of Lemmy, even if the user experience can be a bit strange at times.
