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.
~~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.
