Users essentially have access to posts of people followed by people on their instance. Feeds are chronological, non-algorithmic, and contain no ads. There is [no universal search in Mastodon](https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/9529), as each server monitors a different set of messages. Searching for the same keyword on different instances yields different results. To aid content discovery, Mastodon has [public relays](https://source.joinmastodon.org/mastodon/pub-relay) which rebroadcast anything sent to it to anyone who subscribes to the pub.
