Still trying to get my bearings here.
My account is through Lemmy.World and when I visit the Movies and TV community through lemmy.world/c/moviesandtv@lemmy.film, I only see a few posts. But when I visit https://lemmy.film/c/moviesandtv, there’s a lot more activity.
Did I mess something up in my settings or is this normal? Do I need to have multiple accounts for other instances?
Thanks, y’all.
Ah, thanks. Looks like beehaw.org is still federated with lemmy.world, but just in one direction since at https://beehaw.org/instances lemmy.world is in the blocked list.
@Hedup Yep. They defederated yesterday. https://beehaw.org/post/567170
Then they aren’t federated and likely won’t see posts, right? If instance A defederates from Instance B, no matter what instance B does, they don’t talk.
They do talk, but only in one direction.
This post explains the mechanism comprehensively.

@MadCybertist @SonNeedGym @hydra @Hedup Yep. They might seem like there talking but you will be talking to yourself. They have to federate to be able to talk and see all there comments and post. you might see some stuff now cause its cached but once they reboot or whatever you won’t see anything
I’m no expert here, but I believe Beehaw defederating from lemmy.world means that people on Beehaw don’t see content from people on lemmy.world, and people on lemmy.world can see but can’t contribute to content on Beehaw. If lemmy.world defederated Beehaw, it would go the other direction.
Yeah, that’s pretty much what I meant by defederation in one direction.
