My understanding is that the 'all' feed only shows posts that come from accounts followed by people on your instance. You can follow anyone from any federated instance; and when you do, their posts will appear in your personal feed, and also in the 'all' feed for everyone on your instance. People are aren't followed by anyone on your instance won't show up in the 'all' section.
I've believe I've seen something like that stated before, but we're talking *zero* mastodon content showing up in ALL. Which happens to be the same instance as yours, btw, with Lemm.ee being the third largest instance in the Lemmysphere. You'd expect at least a little mastodon content showing up, but there's just nothing.
So far the two resources just don't seem to be mixing, so perhaps what the other person was saying is correct. Right now in order to search mastodon, I'm using this tool.
Thank you for sharing Fediverse Explorer, super useful!
