I'm admin for a small Mastodon server, and I'm kind of depressed that the official app is simply not going to support my local feed, that any feedback about this is ignored. The local feed is the main motivation to run a small Mastodon instance. I understand that it's useless to a huge server like the flagship instance, but I thought the point of the fediverse is to not simply run everything on a handful of huge websites.

I recommend against it for exactly that reason. Without the local feed, a lot of what makes Mastodon cool goes away.
