    To my understanding, it gets deleted in that instance, but a portion of it may be preserved if another instance that is federated already holds that data.

    Two things: the data on the instance will be gone.

    The posts/comments that were replicated on other instances will stay, but they will be defederated, meaning they will not ever be synced up woth other instances’ replications of these posts/comments. Every instance will just have their own, insular copy.

      Do the copies on other instances ever expire and get cleared? Or will they stay indefinitely, without updates?
