@lemmy_support Why do only SOME updates reach Lemmy from Mastodon?

I posted to Lemmy from Mastodon: https://lemmy.ml/post/49566110

A Lemmy user's comment on that post reached me on Mastodon. I replied from Mastodon & my reply showed up on Lemmy, as hoped.

Later, I tried to reply from Mastodon to other Lemmy comments on the same post. Why didn't these replies reach Lemmy? https://mastodon.social/@modem/_down/116907072443986550

@db0 but the following replies that I sent from Mastodon did NOT ping the community handle, yet still reached Lemmy.ml:

- My first reply to you in this thread.

- My reply to @gary_host_laptop on my original "can you see this message?" thread.

There's some apub unseen metadata which is not visible to us which might cause any of these. I can't investigate it though, I just know that while federation is working, it's notoriously flakey between the two apub services.
