If instance A defederates from instance B does that mean that users on A will never see users from B? (sh.itjust.works)

For example, say an instance C is not defederated with B nor A. Can a user on A see users from B if they visit a community on C? If so, to what extent can the users from A and B interact with each other on C?

From practical example:

I defederated one instance. Before, I saw content of them, now I dont. I dont know if they can see my content but I dont think they do.

Obviously a sample size of one is not evidence but more of a hint at what might happen.

You can always ask the folks on .ml for they make the software.

I dont know if they can see my content but I dont think they do.

From what I understand, they should still be able to see your content — you are still posting to the network.
