I think you can, actually. One instance can have an entirely separate comment section. It’s almost like the users of one instance are shadow banned from the other.
Actually, I think I’m a little wrong: that happens when one instance BLOCKS another, and then you’re commenting on the blocked instance from a THIRD instance? It’s all kinda complicated and I’m not sure I grasp it fully.

It’s a common misconception, but you can view any post in the fediverse. You are not able to interact with any defederated instance.
