My understanding is, if the fediverse is a web of instances (being the server/domain you signed up and have an account on), 'all' only has the context of everything on your home instance and stuff people on your instance are subscribed to.

So not just your own personal subscribe, but the entire subscribe of any user from redlemmy.com in your case.

Your all is likely different than my all. There is no true 'all' because of how communities connect and aren't contingent on each other's existence, and things like instances defederating from others.

Which is why I don't use the small private instance a friend is running. I want All to contain stuff I don't normally look at.

If your friend signs up his instance for Lemmy-Federate it will help populate the /All feed.

That's why I always click on the recommended communities when I've got a few minutes

My experience is that the "subscribed" feed only shows me posts from the specific communities that I'm personally subscribed to.
