There are three kinds of timelines on here:
Home - Main timeline, shows all posts by accounts you follow, plus posts which include hashtags you follow
Local - Shows all public posts by all accounts on your server
Federated - Shows all public posts by all accounts that your server has noticed
On the official Mastodon app, Local is called "Community", click the magnifying glass đ to see it.
