Being defederated just means you can't see new posts on beehaw communities and they can't see your communities at all. If your instance and beehaw are both federated with a third instance, like the one this community is on, then you'll still be able to see comments by beehaw users on that instance.
Let me just make sure I got this right
Dee is on lemmy.world
Zoop is on beehaw
This thread is on lemmy.blahaj.zone
So Dee and Zoop can see each other's comments since neither lemmy.world nor beehaw is defederated from blahaj.zone?
It's like a border state or something
Accorded neutral ground
I can see Zoop's comment, but Zoop can't see mine. Because beehaw is defederated from lemmy.world but lemmy.world has not chosen to defederate from beehaw so it still gets the comments from beehaw users.
Actually because all these replies are to my lemmy.world account Zoop can't see this entire exchange, and I can't see it on my beehaw account either. I just had a brain fart.
Ah, okay. Because behaw defederated they're not seeing anything from lemmy.world. They're also not sending anything to lemmy.world. But they are sending stuff to blahaj.zone, so you can read that stuff.
I wonder if they're seeing my responses, from kbin, to your comments, from lemmy.world, on blahaj.zone.
I cannot see anything from this conversation on my beehaw account, because it all stemmed from my original reply (which is from a lemmy.world account). So on beehaw it's just Zoop's original comment, nothing after.
Edit: For example on beehaw this post as 37 comments, while on lemmy.world it has 97 (at the time of writing this edit)
why did beehaw defederate from lemmy.world?
That's why. Which is to say they were getting too many reports from lemmy.world accounts to go through and keep the good vibes in their communities, but hope to refederate as soon as Lemmy gets more granular moderation tools developed.
I see, thank you
~~I'm not sure about that. I think it might be a glitch or something because I never see beehaw comments on lemmy.world and never see lemmy.world comments on my beehaw account. Like, I can't see the comment I made on this account from my beehaw account.~~
~~Just thought it was odd.~~
I was just being dumb, Monzingo is right.
