I simultaneously want each instance to feel more like a tight-knit, local community (by showing the local timeline, and having each instance have their own style of moderation) while also making it even easier to use one account to follow your favorite Lemmy groups, Pixelfed posters, and fave people from all over, to like and boost posts.
Best of both worlds.
Your own “home” timeline which is a sprawling eclectic selection of all your own faves from all over, and a local timeline that’s what’s going on in your instance right now, maybe the latter doesn’t even show boosts.
Hey @Sandra!
It's good to know Bonfire is planning to do that.
Our local timeline doesn't show boosts, I thought that's normal.
Also this browser extension you talk about is also already getting started.*
The attempt to try to be like Twitter with "the whole known network" was super misguided, as was the new Discover tab 🤬
Discovery is the enemy
