What does Local do? (self.main)

So on the home page it defaults to local. When I hover my mouse it says that it shows local communities only. However when I look at the feed there is definitely posts from communities that are not local. So I have no idea what this actually does.

There is an odd bug when the app first loads in....

After it loads, if you click off of local, and back onto local though, it will THEN show only local posts.

I'm on lemmy.world; are there being apps tailored for specific instances?

I'm sure some servers have customized it.

It's also entirely possible (and pretty easy) to build a completely custom front-end too.

I have seen two servers, with a few front-end customizations.

beehaw.org runs a custom skin.
lemmynsfw.com, is compiled with some customizations for their instance.... (something, relating to nsfw)
