For New Users, there are three time lines:

🏠 Home: Which has your posts and the people you follow

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Local: Which has posts from people on your instance.

🌎 Federated: Which has posts from across the fediverse (other instances). They are mostly follows of all of the people on your instance but there's a few more thrown in for good measure.

@mike I haven't figured this out yet. Where can I switch between those 3 in the app?
@ethicalthinker Hi, I wrote this earlier: New Users, if you're on the official Mastodon mobile app Stop 🛑. It does not show all the views and confuses most new users. For Android I would suggest Tusky, for Apple I would suggest Metatext or Toot. #NewToMastodon
@mike Hmmm...thanks. I can't do that right now though because I'm unable to reset my password (emails never arrive, saved password doesn't work) and this is the only place I'm logged in.
