Example, Lemmy.ml and Lemmy.world have duplicate communities aren't connected at all. So we are artificially isolating groups more and making it confusing for would be converts.

Alright, so

A - Origin community
B - Other community
C - following community of A & B

User posts to A, a "as:announce" on C is generated. A user replies to the post on C. Will user A see the reply? Will someone looking at the post on A see the activity on C?

Yes. When the reply is posted to C, it is sent to A. A then sends as:Announce to C, as well as any other communities that follow it.

B seems to be irrelevant here.

They are still separate communities. Users following only A will not see the posts from C. Users following both A and C will everything.
