I thought I understood, but I still have Beehaw content in my feed, so I guess I don’t understand after all… Can someone dumb it down for me?

    So for a Beehaw user, would they see all of the the Kbinner’s comments and it would look as if they were talking to themselves? Or would they only see the top level Kbinner comment and nothing else (due to their instance not seeing the Beehaw comment and therefore not seeing children of that comment either)?

      Beehaw can pull in content from other instances, but users from those instances cannot comment or post back to Beehaw. If you were interacting with content coming from Beehaw on a different instance, in practice it would feel like you’re shadow-banned as nobody on Beehaw would be able to see or reply to you.

        So given participant 1, 2. 1 is on .world, 2 is on kbin

        P1: message a
        P2: message b
        P1: message c
        P2: message d

        Would a beehaw user see just messages b and d? What would it look like they are replying to?

        Would they see the comment chain at all as it was started by P1?
