-#### The Public Timeline
+#### The Federated Timeline
 
-Mastodon has a "Public" timeline, which is a collection of all public toots made by all local users as well as posts from remote users that are federated (because someone on your instance follows the remote user making the post). This is a good way to meet new people to follow or interact with, but can be overwhelming especially if there's a lot of activity.

-![Public Timeline icon](screenshots/public-timeline.png) To view the public timeline, click the "Public Timeline" icon in your Compose column or the respective button on the Getting Started panel. To hide the public timeline again, simply click the "Back" link at the top of the public column while you're viewing it.

+#### The Local Timeline
+
+In addition to the Federated Timeline, there's also a "Local" timeline, which only shows public toots made by users on your home instance. This is quieter than the Federated timeline, and useful if you want to stick close to your instance's community without having too much noise from outside. To view the Local Timeline, click the ![Menu icon](screenshots/compose-menu.png) Menu icon on the Compose pane and then select "Local Timeline" on the rightmost column.
