If you are referring to this

I wouldn't mind one bit if kbin/beehaw were defederated from each other

then, unless you have some insider knowledge, I think you may be mistaken. kbin and beehaw are not defederated ... at least not yet.

federated = joined in an alliance, e.g. linked

defederated = not federated, e.g. blocked / censored / not linked
