Suspicious here on #hubzilla that my comments, at least, sometimes, aren't getting distributed into Mastodon. Or maybe just mastodon dot social. Or ... dunno.

I don't think you're wrong. But I haven't figured out if it's Hubzilla, my server, ActivityPub, or Mastodon.

That's probably because threads work differently on Mastodon from Hubzilla. Mastodon doesn't know threaded conversations. And Mastodon users only receive messages

posted by actors that they follow
boosted (repeated) by actors that they follow
which mention them

But they do not receive messages that are comments on posts which they've already received.

Let's assume Alice posts something on Mastodon, Bob comments on Mastodon, Carol replies to Bob on Mastodon, Dave replies to Carol on Mastodon and you reply to Dave on Hubzilla.

If this was an all-Hubzilla thread, you'd only mention Dave to show that you're replying to Dave. Your comment goes straight to Alice, and Bob, Carol and Dave pick it up from Alice because they've already got Alice's post on their stream.

But since Alice, Bob, Carol and Dave are on Mastodon, if you only mention Dave, then only Dave will receive and be notified about your reply because you've mentioned Dave. Alice, Bob and Carol will never see your reply because you haven't mentioned them.

So in this constellation, if you want all four to see your reply, you have to mention them all.

Granted, other reasons may be delivery delays on Hubzilla's side, or that enough Mastodon users have muted or blocked you because, from their point of view, you as a Hubzilla user act too disturbingly un-Mastodon-like, and you break Mastodon's unwritten rules left and right.

Before one clicks on the text box, the word "Share" greets the user.
I'd prefer the word "Write." Let me think about why I do.

OK, somebody in #Hubzilla remind me again where to change the settings for permissions sharing ...

If you go to a settings under your profile pic, in channel settings, change it up Public role.

I think the switch is underneath the kitchen sink.

Trying to show the !@Hubzilla Users Support forum this problem, but I must have uploaded it as a protected image. This image below shows the problem of editing and saving a post created in Markdown. It gets turned to bbcode, and badly.
