We need a new Explore-Feed (similar to Mastodon), which consolidates the All- and Local-Feed

The All-Feed is very important to increase the content-quality of the threadiverse and therefore, ensure its existense. However, for smaller instances, there is only limited reason to put the All-Feed prominent in their UI, because their posts will never be present there. However, if they push people toward their the Local-Feed (which they currently do), people will only stay on their instance and overall discussion quality declines.
So, to truly overcome instance protectionism, we need a new feed, in which an instance can find a good balance between showing content from other instances and its own.
But that's possible, simply go to the instances website
But then you're not able to click a topic and post in it, because you aren't logged onto that instance.
That's true. I'm not sure it would be a good feature, because you would inevitable only see a certain view of the instance. For example your instances blocks certain communities of that instance (don't know if thats possible but lets assume it is), then you wouldn't see these communities.
I'm fine with the way it is. Also you can post to that topic, you just need to search for it in your instances UI.
