Although this one: ml user posting to lemmy.world can be seen by me and also sees my post to Lemmy.world - I’m not sure about that. I doubt you’d see anything posted by a .ml user.
Defederation is another layer of blocking and it works almost the same but slightly differently too.
Honestly I haven’t systematically tested all the possible combinations of settings and all the different places where it might have an effect on other instances. It’s a lot. Also most of the blocking code was written almost 2 years ago so it’s not something I look at often anymore.
Yes, I think so.

So on Pyfedi, does the instance have two layers of blocking? Meaning, “block” and “defederation,” or is blocking only for users?
Blocking is a the user level
Defederation is at the instance level
(and it’s called Piefed)
