I thought I understood, but I still have Beehaw content in my feed, so I guess I don’t understand after all… Can someone dumb it down for me?

    Users on Beehaw would not see anything from Lemmy.world. If it’s still federated with Kbin, then they would see that content.

    Likewise, anyone on Lemmy.world would not see content or be able to access communities from Beehaw.

      So for a Beehaw user, would they see all of the the Kbinner’s comments and it would look as if they were talking to themselves? Or would they only see the top level Kbinner comment and nothing else (due to their instance not seeing the Beehaw comment and therefore not seeing children of that comment either)?

        Beehaw can pull in content from other instances, but users from those instances cannot comment or post back to Beehaw. If you were interacting with content coming from Beehaw on a different instance, in practice it would feel like you’re shadow-banned as nobody on Beehaw would be able to see or reply to you.
