What does it mean by a community getting defederated in an instance? (lemmy.one)

I saw that beehaw.org was defederated from lemmy.world but not on lemmy.one. And I am on the latter one. What does it mean exactly?

I honestly don't know. Beehaw defederated a couple of instance and after a discussion with the other instance reintegrated that one, saying that they could not get in contact with lemmy.world. While I saw a chat from lemmy.world saying they could not reach out to beehaw admin. My best bet is a communication issue and that will be resolved, and this is mostly about beehaw wanting stricter standards than lemmy.world and getting spammed by a few people on lemmy.world, making their life difficult for a while and without a fast communication channel with the admins of lemmy.world decided to go with the quickest option.
