When this contraction of "Yes" and "Not" gained popularity on the Internet in mid-2018, it simply was meant as a meme-cultured way to say "No." (There was even a changedotorg petition to change "No" to "Yesn't," which was signed by 26,000 people.)
Nowadays, the use of "Yesn't" is meant to indicate that the answer to a question isn't entirely "yes" or "no" (i.e. "maybe" or "partially"). Interestingly, this was the original intent of the word when it first appeared in 2008 due to Robert Funk.
Owing to the two partly-clashing meanings of this word, there are two examples provided.
