I don’t know if the reverse is a new thing or if it’s always been like that.

Here’s a comment in a lemmy issue describing mastodon images not appearing in lemmy from last year. Since the issue was closed three days after 0.19.3 released I had expected it to work in the next version 0.19.4, but it appears that was not the case.

Edit: While I’m here, I noticed piefed also doesn’t support it, so was considering opening an issue to support attachments, but I imagine there wouldn’t be much desire to do so until mastodon integration is more of a real thing? though I think other software does it, like Plemora/Akkoma/Iceshrimp, I didn’t check but did see the code for it being discussed for plemora at least

We’re also trying to investigate and solve the issues he’s been running into

The defederation is one-way; lemmy.world isn’t defederating beehaw.org. lemmy.world users can still see the community, and even still post to it (I assume, not sure if lemmy.world took changes to stop that but, as you can see it even has posts from local lemmy.world users as of 2 months ago, but the last content from anyone outside the instance is 7 months old). However, they will never make it to beehaw.org and thus won’t be federated anywhere else (only users on lemmy.world would ever see it).

They could, yes. Afaik no extra work was needed on lemmy’s side once Mbin changed to report moderators in the same manner (aside from some kind of activity which triggered a refresh of the data)

However, looking at peertube, it looks like they already are using the attributedTo field for the group with a person, which is different from the FEP. For the channel you link in the OP specifically:

"attributedTo": [
  {
    "type": "Person",
    "id": "https://tilvids.com/accounts/thelinuxexperiment"
  }
]

It’s possible PeerTube could change to make a /moderators endpoint and respond with that as the FEP suggests, or Lemmy and other software to change to accept this array of actor types instead. I’m not sure who decides these things or if there is an evangelist for FEPs, It’s possible this was already discussed on the peertube github as well, I didn’t look through all the past issues as there are quite a lot

An ActivityPub group actor defining its moderators is a specific implementation of the AP protocol. You can find the spec details lemmy uses here. An Mbin contributor recently implemented this to line up with Lemmy, but whether other fediverse software do or will is up to them, as it’s more of a community proposal than an official implementation of the spec. So when you see no moderators from other software, they likely just do not implement the linked FEP
