Do you get notifications from every reply, or only ones that @ you?

When things are syncing, they should be getting all messages and not just the @ ones. This is based on my twin finding a post I made to lemmy and commenting on it from mastodon. As long as I replied to their comment, they saw it and I never used the @.
Although this is the opposite, maybe. Someone from mastodon made the post, instead of commenting on a lemmy post from mastodon.
Also the @ was just something mastodon does and we found twin could remove it on their end and I'd still be alerted I had a reply.
Edit - they won't be alerted of this message though, as it's not a top level comment. They'll get yours because yours is. But mine is a comment to you. They'd still see it if they read the thread though.
I think I still need to @ whoever I'm replying to tho, I'm not sure you'll get it otherwise

From my short experience with mastodon and similars (misskey, akkoma), it doesn't notify a user you've replied to if you don't @ them, which makes no sense to me, since the "Reply" is pointing to said user's post anyway. So, their workaround is to force @ them anyway
You can create posts in Lemmy communities by tagging the community account
(It should be a public post)
If the community account is tagged with @, it will share the post and the post will also appear in the forum.
For example, this is a post I created from Mastodon in feddit's #Tischtennis forum: metalhead.club/@caos/112749905… ... and this is how it is displayed in Lemmy: feddit.org/post/556495
The only thing to note from Mastodon and Akkoma etc. is: The beginning of the post/the first paragraph becomes the title of the forum post, as Mastodon does not have a heading field. (see also: Instructions Creating a post from Mastodon)
So it is best to start the post like this (see image 1):
This is my headline (as descriptive a title as possible)
@community@lemmy-instance
This is the further text, link etc.
if necessary a picture (only in the initial post a picture is transferred from Mastodon to Lemmy, between Lemmy and Friendica all images in answers are transferred in the meantime)

HELLO MASTODON FRIEND!!!
@happy_wheels hiii blahaj friend!! :3
Hello there
@sunoc oh hello :3
it really didn't take long for this account to be discovered huh
>:3 rawr
Interesting, so the replies with the “@“ username are from people from Mastodon!
How does it work for my replies on your side ?
@sunoc yes, but I think lemmy also shows the @ username for anyone on a different instance from yours, not necessarily mastodon
for me your replies appear as comments under my mastodon post
They mean in the text body at the start. So like @ilikefootcheese@harvard.edu not in the username section
Always love seeing the telltale sign of mass accs always fun to see
@sorrybookbroke oh mb I see it now, yeah mastodon auto-completes the replies with that, I don't think it works if I delete the mention
also disappointed that @ilikefootcheese@harvard.edu is not a real account
@hameru friendica checking in!
@qkall @onehundredninetysix @hameru woah
how did you do that
Here was the best tutorial I could find for it.
