@misk I think your federation software is broken. In Mastodon, the urls in your posts just lead back to themselves every time, not out to an external article.
I'm not sure if you'll get this reply @mighty_orbot@retro.pizza, but here's the link visible from Lemmy itself: https://tuta.com/blog/digital-fingerprinting-worse-than-cookies.
Your method of accessing this Lemmy community seems not to be working on your side somehow. You might try a different app - I've never used Mastodon so I don't know what might work.
@OpenStars That was my point. I can open the post on its own server and see it as intended. But the federation part of the Lemmy software is clearly not generating the right data. It should embed the Tuta.com link instead of linking back to the post itself.

What I mean is, the link in a Lemmy community when viewed from a Lemmy instance works just fine. So it's not broken at that level.
I can't speak to how it comes across to Mastodon, or your particular method of access to that, as you showed in your screenshot. In general, instances running the Mbin software seem to work better to access both Lemmy and Mastodon, but overall communication between Mastodon and Lemmy seems not perfect, as you said.
