I’ve seen that some instances have already done it preemptively.

    Beehaw defederated lemmy.world.

    If you go to any community on Beehaw viewed from lemmy.world, you can see that new content isn’t available. Only posts & comments from lemmy.world users show up.

    If you go to any community on lemmy.world viewed from Beehaw, you can see the same thing.

    As soon as one defederates the other, all communication between them stops, afaik. The content isn’t federated in either direction.

    Edit: I might be somewhat wrong, since there are a few posts by users from other instances, but it’s only a few, almost all posts and comments aren’t available. I dont know what’s going on here, disregard what I said.

      Yeah I don’t claim to understand this fully either but I’ve learned that the best way to get right answer for something on the internet is to say something that’s wrong and so far people don’t seem to be rushing to tell me I’m wrong at this so I think I have it somewhat right. I don’t know which instances defederate with mine so I can’t really explore it further
