I’ve seen weird federation stuff in the past, and maybe that’s what’s happening here, but can’t claim that I fully understand it. My maybe incorrect assumption was that they added an instance block.
Basically, if you defederate with a site, activity-pub will no longer send activity updates to that site and will ignore updates from that site
So if a third site makes a post, then someone from .ml comments on it, it'll send the comment to that third site and that site will update the post it sent to .world
And I think in Lemmy, that update (the .ml comment) would be ignored by .world. So if you look at the post on .world, the local version of the post won't be updated with that comment
But in this case, the original post is on .world, so I don't think .ml should even be able to see it if you're defederated...
I see an .ml comment and a reply from blahaj... Maybe .world has a site-wide block instead of defederation? In which case it'd be as if you have blocked every user from .ml

lmfao, the best part about this comment is that they’re probably so scared of commies they can’t see it either

How would that work? Would it be to do with not seeing .ml posts or something like that? I still don't really get that aspect of federation! 😁
