why are upvotes/downvotes able to sync across instances really well on lemmy, even though syncing favorites across instances barely works on mastodon? (pawb.social)

i belieive lemmy groups will boost the like activities they receive to all instances, whereas mastodon doesn't try that sort of thing (likely due to privacy reasons, as this means all instances know who liked what)
