      What I mean by search engine is literally just Google, I don’t mean my sh.it search function. If you’re not accessing Beehaw through one of the defederated instances then it won’t know you’re from a defederated instance, no?

        Correct, but you can’t reply or vote there without an account on beehaw or another instance that they do federate with. That’s what they are concerned about. They are saying they are concerned about just anybody making posts or comments on beehaw because of open user registrations on lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works.

          Yeah that’s why in my initial comment I said “just anonymously but unable to comment or interact”.
