It appears that I can follow accounts mutually from:
- mastodon <-> pixelfed
- mastodon <-> friendica
but I can't follow my pixelfed account from friendica (but the other way seems to work).
Is this right? should the last one work?

I can. I can even reply to your comment there. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like my reply makes it back to Mastodon.

the app logos on the right of each message showing which kind of app it came from, and linking back to the post on it's home server are a really nice touch.

So it works for me to follow #Pixelfed accounts from #Friendica. If you copy a Pixelfed post in the search, the user's profile is displayed and you can follow them there.

True! Yes, I can follow via the mouseover popup on the username. Clicking the username takes me to pixelfel though. So maybe not a federation issue, but a UI/UX issue.

Well.. not sure really how the accounts work on each service. And I guess the follow call is made server-side, so I can't debug it?
Also, I can see this comment! So I guess me not being able to reply from friendica.world is not a general problem, but maybe something specific to that server?

Weirdly, I can't see your reply on friendica.world, but I CAN see my mastodon.social reply to your reply (though it says "unknown parent")

in reply to naught101 • • •Yes, you can.
you can usually connect between all software in the Fediverse
if you enter a link to a pixelfed post in the Friendica search, will it be found?

in reply to crossgolf_rebel - kostenlose Kwalitätsposts • •Yeah! Someone on mastodon pointed this out too. I can follow my pixelfed account then, using the mouse over popup.
So, not a federation issue, but a UI/UX issue.
