It does work that way, but Mastodon and some other microblogging software like Firefish (fka Calckey), Pleroma, etc. can also use relays to populate their federated timelines.
Oh right, I remember hearing about relays. Is that something the admin of the instance controls?
Yup! If the software supports it, instance admins can usually add relays from their control panel.
