Interacting with Mastodon conversations


I guess I'm doing something wrong, but I'm trying to comment on Mastodon conversations from this Friendica instance, but it doesn't seem to work.
I have follow a person, and replied to one of their posts a good 6 hours ago.
I logged in to my mastodon account and found the same thread, but could not see the reply from my Friendica instance, though I could see the same replies from other people as I can via Friendica.

I'm completely new to Friendica, so I'm guessing I have overlooked something?

Disclaimer - I have no specific knowledge, and this is an educated guess based on what I know as a user of distributed social media.

Friendica advertises that it has integrations for various ActivityPub/alternative social media services. My guess is it's one-way only. Friendica gets content from other sources, but without buy in from Mastodon devs, Friendica content won't show up there.

Yeah, I was thinking something in a similar vain, but I couldn't find anything about it. But it might be a good avenue for further investigation

@Peter Sørensen I just signed up for Friendica and I'm noticing the same thing. I'm not sure what's going on either, but I did notice that replies to Mastodon from Friendica seem to be hit or miss so far (mostly miss, but not completely). I noticed that someone else's reply from another Friendica instance than my own shows up in Mastodon, but my replies don't. I'm starting to wonder if it may be something broken with specific Friendica instances.
