So maybe I'm just missing a basic usage thing here - I know I can follow other accounts across instances, but then where's the feed for that instance being displayed? I see "federated" and "local" timelines, is there a way to have a timeline for a specific instance / list of only instances I care about?

@BrianLockhart @nvk @jronkain @Ancap the feed would come from the people you follow.

I see on the local feed all the instance toots. E.g. people who have just joined.

That's the bummer part - if my "local" instance isn't the same as someone I follow in another instance, I don't get exposure to the same conversations. My "home" feed will show anything posted from people I follow from any instance. That's great / keep that...

But I think Mastodon needs to add a view feed that lets me see traffic from multiple instances that I want to participate in. Don't make me log in and out / force me to hop instances. etc. etc.
