For the newbies, why do I still see new beehaw posts in lemmy.world, and why will lemmy.world let me post to beehaw? (beehaw.org)

I’m honestly super confused about what you can and can’t do when federation ties have been cut.

Super weird. So lemmy.world’s view of beehaw c/technology could just be littered with troll or spam posts for all beehaw users would know?

Precisely. It could be filled with trash from their point of view but we would see none of it. They'll stop seeing any content in our community posted by our members from the point of defederation.

Wonder what happens when/if we turn the federation on again? I'm guessing their versions will be replaced by our true ones?

So, for example, on beehaw, c/Feminism could be full of feminists, and on another instance, beehaw's c/Feminism could be full of posts and comments of people hating on feminists?

Sounds like it should be limited to comments on old posts. Are new posts showing over there too?
