}

Answer 1

Hoping I can boil down the other answers into this SSCCE that helped me:

          open class Open {}     // Anyone can see, anything can subclass
public         class Normal {}   // Anyone can see, internal can subclass
internal       class Internal {} // Internal can see, internal can subclass
public   final class Final {}    // Anyone can see, nothing can subclass

In your project/module:

class SubOpen:     Open {}     // OK
class SubNormal:   Normal {}   // OK
class SubInternal: Internal {} // OK
class SubFinal:    Final {}    // Error: Can't subclass

In some other project/module:

class SubOpen:     Open {}     // OK
class SubNormal:   Normal {}   // Error: Can't subclass
class SubInternal: Internal {} // Error: `Internal` type not found
class SubFinal:    Final {}    // Error: Can't subclass
