Unless I’m missing something in the code I linked, they’re not. All that action does is merge one community into another on the local database, nothing federates.

IIRC there were discussions back when lemm.ee shutdown about allowing the community migration between Piefed instances to automatically subscribe the members of the previous community to the new one, but I don’t know how that ended
@rimu@piefed.social @Skavau@piefed.social ?

Well it isn't possible, and probably not ever possible to automatically redirect lemmy-based subscribers to a new community on piefed via migration. I also think lemmy users would not like that even if it was.
But Rimu did suggest he wanted it to automatically do it for piefed based users.

Yep.
With that limitation and with most of the community moves in the foreseeable future will being from Lemmy to PieFed, not PieFed to PieFed, it's not really a high priority.

Thank you for clarifying
