This clearly seems to follow up the VyrCossont's idea of the extended search feature that finds public posts.
Gargron: "It is my decision to unite all discovery features in one setting, because all of this stuff is an expected part of a social network and splitting it up into different settings that everyone has to opt-into one by one just to get the same behaviour they get by default on other social media seems like a bad user experience. Also, discoverable is already a federated attribute." #Mastodon#Search#OpenSource
