Are we 'Shadowbanned' from beehaw? (kbin.social)

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

You got your answers already, so I’ll ask:

as are we a subset of lemmyworld?

What gave you that idea?

I'm just not super strong on the whole fediverse concept, apologies friend

It's like The Force: You need a certain concentration of fedichlorians before you can gain an understanding.

Each website is independent from each other. They merely have the potential to automatically mirror content from other websites made using compatible software.

So lemmy.ml, lemmy.one, lemmy.world, lemmy.ca, etc. are all totally different websites that run Lemmy. Being different websites, they have totally different admins, and have different rules.

Meanwhile, kbin.social, kbin.run, kbin.place, kayb.ee, fedia.io, and readit.buzz, are totally different websites that run kbin. They similarly have totally different admins, and different rules.

Lemmy (the software) and kbin (the software) use the same communication language, so they can exchange content, but they're still being used by totally separate websites.
