    I mean, yeah, that is the whole point.

    You need to search for key words or alternative just press a hashtag you see on a post, hashtags is how all instances communicate since there isn’t a proper text only searcher across instances.

    Hashtags are extremely important if you want people from outside your own instance to find your posts and they are heavily used by everyone for that reason.

    Of course you can manually search for users, or go to other instances and follow people from those, that way yohr own timeline will be filled with people outside your own instance.

    Lastly you have the all feed where it pulls posts from every instance federated with yours. It is pretty much useless, a lot of what you will se there will be on other languages and you won’t really see interesting contwnt like you do on local or your own feed since it has no theme or anything, it is just random tweets.
