Aren’t you only “shadow banned” from users of that instance? Wouldn’t folks federated with your instance still see your comments?
My understanding is that Lemmy isn’t peer-to-peer, it’s more like hub-and-spoke, relative to the instance that the community is on.
So if users on B and C are interacting with a post on A, then it’s the responsibility of A to be the postman and handle the syncing between A<>B and A<>C; B and C don’t directly talk in this case.
Thus, nobody outside of Lemmyworld sees posts from Lemmyworld made on Beehaw communities, because Beehaw doesn’t accept them, and therefore doesn’t pass them along to the other instances, either.
I recommend reading this post on lemmy.world for a very clear understanding of how the defederation affects these instances: https://lemmy.world/post/149743
Pretty sure that’s right.
That’s confusing. Let’s say that there is antance A, B and C. (Instance A is Beehaw) Now let’s say A bans C, but not B. And B hasn’t banned anyone. That would mean instance A would still see the comments of C, when replying to B, right? If so, people from Instance A would feel like they are being gaslit more then people blocked from instance C.
Doesn’t ‘gaslit’ mean convincing someone they’re making things up? Or is that all in my head?
Gaslighting doesn’t exist, you made it up
Oh it definitely exists. Ask anyone who has experienced living/working/dealing with a narcissist.
I think they were joking…
Lmao. Well, woosh!
I guess I’ve just had too many real arguments with people on reddit about this and this comment flew right past me. :D
Gaslighting is convincing someone that they perceived or remembered things incorrectly. That’s a very specific kind of manipulation.
Why do people use it to mean bullshitting in general?
Like most buzzwords, gaslight has lost its meaning.
Gone the way of ‘reboot’ huh? I blame the media trying to cram the trendy terms in wherever they can.

So let’s say A is Beehaw and C is Lemmy.world and B is a hypothetical instance that Beehaw and Lemmy.world approve. How does that work?
Does it just clip off viewability of the comments for A if a post from C is made?
Trying to understand your comment it sounds like your saying if A bans C, then no on other than C can view their comments?
But can C see A through B?
