A screenshot of my Qoto setup following the “Local Timeline” of other instances.

Ahh, you mean the “Local timeline” feed of an instance?
That, I'm afraid, is dependent on the instance's software.
For example, you can do it with #Firefish (see: https://firefish.social) and #Qoto (see: https://qoto.org).
(See attached screenshots.)
* Firefish (formerly Calckey), is a fork of #Misskey. Misskey is a Japanese made #Fediverse software.
* Qoto is a fork of Mastodon, with more features than the original Mastodon software.
As far as I know, the mainline #Mastodon software will never add this feature (and was suggested a lot of times before).
I'm not sure which other Fediverse software have this feature. It's actually very useful in content discovery; and avoiding creating multiple accounts.
