My main complaint with Mastodon (the web version, at least) is that you can't easily browse different stances from within your native one, like you can with lemmy.
In Mastodon, I can't easily filter to see only toots from instance X or Y, my only options are either <all local toots> or <all connected federated instances' toots>
I'm pretty sure some mastodon forks solve this and let you browse other instances local timelines
Any examples? I'd like to join Mastodon soon and if I can't easily browse other instances that takes away a lot of the appeal for me.
Various iOS and Android apps let you follow the ‘local’ timeline for other instances. I use Ice Cubes for iOS, but I believe a lot of other apps have this feature.
Like mastodon?

I'm using programming.dev as my lemmy home and can easily browse any other with the address https://programming.dev/c/<communityname>@<lemmy.instance> , ie, https://programming.dev/c/memes@lemmy.ml
