Nothing to do with this post, but I hadn't realized the implications of how federation works mean that this post which comes from the ml community (which does not federate with ani.social) can still be crossposted to this community (on ani.social) as long as it is done so by a third instance that federates with both (world in this case).

I think you're still slightly misunderstanding a bit. The post was made to lemmy.ml by a user on lemmy.world, I (bookwormstory.social) then crossposted it to ani.social. The only relevant part here allowing for the crosspost was me (bookwormstoy.social) not being defederated with lemmy.ml. I think the crosspost link only defaults to lemmy.world because the OP is on that instance.

But yeah the gist is correct, as long as there is some path to an instance that is federated content can land there, it might need a couple crossposts to get there though.
