@andrew_s Ok that makes more sense but I do know I've tried it other times when there was no user and it posted to one community but not the other.

@db0 on Mastodon it just boosts the posts, I assume that's what Lemmy also does in addition to copying it and formatting the data as a post.
If I oversimplified or got that wrong I'd definitely appreciate if @dessalines or @nutomic could correct me on that. As far as I know there doesn't seem to be a reason why the same post can't appear simultaneously in multiple communties, since they're just boosts and duplicates on the federated instances. @lemmy_support
@db0 Might be, I can't be sure if it's just the first one, or random. I don't really want to try, my instance admin might not be too happy with me posting too many test posts in the name of science.
Though the weird thing is that it just straight up denies it even if the other groups aren't Lemmy or federate with Lemmy, which Guppe groups don't.

@Wanpieserino
Only if those posts are to/mentioning a community on Lemmy or Mbin. Profile/public posts don't show up on Lemmy since Lemmy requires all post or comment content to be associated with a group actor (AKA the community/magazine).
