This is generally the way Mastodon displays posts, that they do not appear in an orderly manner.

In my opinion, this is not a contingent consequence, but the problem is a bit deeper: Mastodon staff knows well that helping Mastodon users to use groups better (for example by helping them to visualize them better) means helping competing projects like Friendica, Lemmy, Mbin, Piefed, gup.pe and even Peertube (which also works as a synolos between user (author) and group (channel). Helping the rest of the Fediverse means giving up the dominant leadership position that guarantees them subsidies, donations, visibility and, above all, the possibility to do whatever the fuck they want, imposing de facto standards.

Distribution of active users in the Fediverse (source: fedidb.org - 12/2024)

PS: this is why I am a supporter of Friendica, Lemmy/Piefed, Wordpress, Mbin, Peertube and Bonfire: because virtuous competition brings diversity and diversity brings resilience

I remind you that mastodon users can overcome the serious problem of not being able to view Lemmy communities in an orderly manner. The Raccoon for Friendica app, compatible with Mastodon, provides simplified viewing (viewing only topics) for all accounts of the Lemmy community, Friendica group or Gup.pe group type

Yes, they are two different apps:

Friendica: https://f-droid.org/it/packages/com.livefast.eattrash.raccoonforfriendica/

Lemmy: https://f-droid.org/it/packages/com.livefast.eattrash.raccoonforlemmy.android/

As with most apps in the Fediverse, the system first makes you connect to your server's web page to authenticate and authorize the app. Did you manage to get to that stage?

I couldn't figure out the problem, until I realized there was a space at the end of the link

No, but there is an app for Lemmy, made by the same developer: https://github.com/LiveFastEatTrashRaccoon/RaccoonForLemmy/releases/tag/1.13.0-beta01

Is he back to normal now?

When you write from Friendica (or another social network) to post on Lemmy, you must respect some basic rules.

Here I tried to write a handbook (in Italian) to help users write posts that have a readable title and work well

Furthermore, as regards the titles, you must take into account that Lemmy only interprets up to 200 characters; when exceeding 200 characters, the title is truncated. To count the characters, however, you have to consider the BBCode characters of the source text, which are converted into Markdown in Lemmy. So you have to be careful that "marked" text strings don't end up at the 200th character! Here are some additional notes:
