When you say "we" do you mean lemmy.world folks? I see you're from kbin ๐Ÿค” who is Ernest?

[email protected] is the creator of kbin and admin of kbin.social

And yes that user probably thought the comment above them was also on kbin

I think they meant kbin. We only just started seeing federated posting, so it's catching lots of us by surprise when people are responding from, and about, other instances.

The others read it right. I thought you were from kbin when I commented. So yes now that beehaw split from lemmy.world you can't see (or maybe it is just interacting with) any of their content from your current instance.

So I did some experimenting. Maybe the defederation hasn't happened yet because I just commented on a post in beehaw's technology community. I was also able to see beehaw posts in my search results and also requested to subscribe to one of their communities.

You can check the actual post on beehaw.org. Once the defederation happens, you will be able to post and think all is well, but it doesn't actually leave your server.
