Each instance has a “local” feed of posts from that instance. Same as how local works on Lemmy.
You also have your “home” feed (like our Subscribed, it’s for posts from people you follow) and a “federated” feed (like our All, everything your instance knows about).
I mostly use Mastodon on desktop and I can pin columns with my fave hashtags in as their own separate feed, which is nice.
Thanks, that helps!! The separate timeliness ads actuly pretty awesome. Basically a curated list of topics/people instead of everything being thrown at you like Twitter.
Don’t forget, you can follow hashtags too! So if you want to see toots (posts) regarding a topic that interests you, just follow a hashtag like #ukrainewar, or #linux for example. That’s also a good way to to find people to follow.
Yes! I saw that, that’s great. Missed it initially, as it is not possible viel the official mobile app. And when using Tusky I accidentally “muted” my tags, so they were shown as filtered in the homepage. So many possibilities!
