I usually look at “Local” or “All”, but that’s still only what is published on or is federated by my instance. What effective ways of discovering new content across all of the Fediverse do you know?

it does not search across instances, it only searches its local database copies of instance data it has already receieved.
ie, if theres some server that no lemmy.world user has subscribed to, then no lemmy.world user could search that servers content without an exact link.
Right, though on a largeish instance with a limited blocklist you won’t see much difference (new communities mostly)
Yeah, I already use “All” but that’s still very limiting
exactly. it (your server) is limited to what the users of that server have subscribed to. but many places are using federating bots to fill this gap… no idea if your home base (lemmy.ml) is or not
