@HarkMahlberg That's because Hubzilla has a feature called nomadic identity (https://joinfediverse.wiki/Nomadic_identity).
The channel that I'm replying from, here on hub.netzgemeinde.eu, has a clone on hub.hubzilla.de. A full, live, hot, bidirectional, near-real-time backup that I can use just like the original. This is a feature that some are trying to invent right now, but that "proto-Hubzilla" has had since 2012.
Within Hubzilla, both instances of my channel count has having the exact same identity, jupiter_rowland@hub.netzgemeinde.eu, and as being one thing, only that this thing exists in two places simultaneously.
However, the non-nomadic Fediverse neither knows nor understands nomadic identity. It sees the two instances of my channel as two fully separate identities. Thus, I guess lots of Mastodon users must have blocked me for having an unlabelled bot.
