The question is basically the title.
It’s very hit-and-miss. But mostly miss. That picture of a cat hiding under wrapping paper taunts me.
It doesn’t seem to be related to what instance the content is on. But I haven’t been able to find any pattern.
Is there an alternative (for non-instance-admins) that works more reliably?
Ah. I’m with you. Well that’s super annoying. Maybe one more reason why lemmy.world should defederate from lemmy.ml. :\
Edit: Oh, I wrote this before I saw your edit. I thought you were saying that if a lemmy.ml user responds to a thread on lemmy.world, then the whole thread won’t work on Lemvotes. Which… I don’t specifically know isn’t the case at this point. But yeah.
