It's a one way federation: they only fetch Lemmy's comment, but don't allow other instances to get their content.
There are more details in the post linked in the OP
this isn't entirely true, they do have some comments on lemmy as well, here are some examples:
it seems to be primarily about their communities not federating though i guess?
and either nobody from there posted a post to a lemmy community yet or maybe it doesn't federate posts currently?
I was talking about the communities indeed.

ugh, i didn't notice they're even hiding domains of remote communities for "simplicity" in most cases. that seems so much more dishonest tbh.
@Nothing4You@programming.dev
The idea was to simplify federation for a non tech user. I believe that is literally why ActivityPub is not able to effectively compete.
We are trying to simplify by hiding all complexities. If we try nothing new, the results will not change. There have been many threads about ClubsAll and everyone disagrees what is fair and unfair, so it has been difficult for us to comply. Would it be fair to ask for a common set of rules to be fair to everyone and give me a chance to save clubsall?
Yes, the whole thing is fishy
