in the case of Mastodon at least, the Local tab is a major way to discover new people to follow, or just peek at what’s going on. i don’t think my complaint will hold as much for Lemmy, as it’s about following Communities, not People, and finding the equivalent of a subreddit is worth finding dozens of people.
why do you care about the local tab? I just go on either subscriptions or all, I don’t particularly care what instances content comes from
