Only three options for now:
- Subscribed: only what you subscribed to
- Local: that instance only, empty if there isn’t a single community
- All: shows all the federated
So all should be showing all from my understanding

That's exactly what happen in my personal instance.
You have to search them up at least once so they fill some posts, but if you want comments somebody from your instance has to be actively subscribed:
There are directories of all the fediverse like https://browse.feddit.de/ that can help you discover easier.
Could you in theory just have a bot user that subs to all known instances?
i did that partially. I have a bit user subscribed to many communities. Unfortunately that is a fully manual task - currently i don’t have an automated way of doing this
I don't think there's a way of doing this automatically at the moment.
With Lemmy's API you could set up a bot that takes care of listing all the local communities on a remote server and then searching them from yours, which would make them appear in your search results.
But if you want the publications of this remote community to federate with your server, you need to have a local user subscribed to it.
Ah, so someone needs to be actually subscribed to a community for their content to show up in All?
Alright I guess I'll have to write a simple Bot that can do that for me then
If you're comfortable with Python, you can try this out: Lemmy.py
I'll give it a shot :) If I manage to make something useful I'll share it
