summing up:
Lemmy posts have different URLs to the same Object.
Your example was
https://lemmy.world/post/31535735/17725147
which is
https://lemmy.world/post/31535735/

For mastodon you need to delete anything after the last '/' and put the
"https://lemmy.world/post/31535735/" in the search box and you get the fedi-object instead of the url. Then you can share that. Not saying this is intended, just saying, it works :)
