There was a post about how beehaw was defederating from shitjustworks and lemmy.world about 6 hours ago. Are we involved in that, as are we a subset of lemmyworld?

How does this affect us? I still see beehaw posts on my ‘all’ page, but any content I engage with is effectively visible, I want to be sure

      Don’t mention it. It all clicked for me when I set up a Calckey instance and explored the database. It really hammered home that everything in this space is local. Remote users have entires in the user table. Rmeitr posts are stored right along side those originating elsewhere. Everything I looked at, everyone I spoke to, it was all there.

      And with that, the entire project snapped into focus, and all of the weird quirks of the space made perfect sense.

      Everything is local. Anything that looks otherwise is an illusion.
