well the cool bit about the fediverse is that if you're not on beehaw, then you can still access sh.itjust.works and lemmy.world stuff. and if you're not on sh.itjust.works or lemmy.world you can still access beehaw stuff. so us on kbin can still view all three instances just fine. we're essentially the fediverse swiss lmao
If this were mastodon or akkoma i'd say that sh.itjust.works could get beehaw posts from any other intermediary, but im not sure if lemmy works that way
Yeah, we still can. If I type beehaw directly in my search engine I can view all their posts and stuff, just anonymously and unable to comment or interact.
Those are outdated posts. See https://lemmy.world/post/149743 for explanation.
What I mean by search engine is literally just Google, I don’t mean my sh.it search function. If you’re not accessing Beehaw through one of the defederated instances then it won’t know you’re from a defederated instance, no?
Correct, but you can't reply or vote there without an account on beehaw or another instance that they do federate with. That's what they are concerned about. They are saying they are concerned about just anybody making posts or comments on beehaw because of open user registrations on lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works.
Yeah that’s why in my initial comment I said “just anonymously but unable to comment or interact”.
