There was a post about how beehaw was defederating from shitjustworks and lemmy.world about 6 hours ago. Are we involved in that, as are we a subset of lemmyworld?

How does this affect us? I still see beehaw posts on my ‘all’ page, but any content I engage with is effectively visible, I want to be sure

    So what happens if somebody from Lemmy or shit just works replies to this post? Can beehaw users see and interact with them since kbin is still (mostly) fully federated? If not what if a kbin user then replies to them?

    Federation as a concept seems intuitively simple, even if it’s difficult to explain in layman’s terms, but this selective defederation raises a lot of very strange and specific questions.

      Replying from lemmy.world to check :)

      EDIT: Shortly after the post, it was sent to the original kbin instance.

      After 8 minutes, my reply apparently didn’t make it to beehaw, so I assume all new comments from lemmy.world users, even on posts of third instances, are really banned on beehaw.

        And I’ll reply back so you’re sandwiched by kbin users.

        Can either of you beehaw users see his post?

          Just got your reply here on lemmy.world and only the top message seems to be on beehaw. My reply and your sandwiched reply both apparently didn’t show up there

          If you try to make another non nested comment (or reply directly to your original post) and it show up on beehaw, we can be sure that the federation is running and the comments (and nested comments) that involves the defederated instances are all completely banned from there.

          EDIT: Catch42’s comment also didn’t show up there yet, so the federation seems to be is a big laggy.

          EDIT2: And now Catch42’s commented showed up there, so the federation synced up and the comment thread that involved any user from defederated instances didn’t show up.

      Beehaw users cannot see Lemmyworld users at all now. Lemmyworld users can see beehaw users on kbin.social magazines. Lemmyworld is currently deciding if they want to block beehaw back, which would prevent them from seeing beehaw users.

      As kbinauts we can interact with both of them just fine.
