    If I understand this whole federation thing correctly, when a user makes a post/comment, that content is tied to their home instance.

    So if the instance goes down, that content disappears completely. It’s not cloned to other instances.

    Ergo the same should be the case if the instance gets defederated - content made by its users should become unavailable to instances that don’t federate with it.

    Am I correct?
