Trying to understand Channel Homepage and Network Stream

If I am right there are basically 3 ways or views to see the contents
Communicate
- View your channel homepage
- View your network stream
- View public stream

Channel homepage (typical url https-website-name/channel/myname) shows ALL posts made by me and if posts are public anyone visiting that url can see my posts even without logging in
Network stream (typical url https-website-name/network) is for MY VIEWING ONLY the posts made by my "Connections" plus posts made by me - it cannot be seen if the user is not logged in
Public stream (often the site home : page https-website-name) shows all public posts of that site or from many other sites and one can see even without logging in

Am I right? Please correct or add / improve the above ...
And some questions
- how do I see only all the posts from all connections excluding mine in /network
- how does a non-logged-in user (or a logged one) sees all my posts that I have made in my home website in my page as well as posts (opening posts/new posts) I made in all other places - say, zotadel forum THAT IS, all posts created by me in hubzilla fediverse
- how does one sees only my posts in /channel/myname when "Friends" have also posted there

show all 5 comments

Thank you for that list, explains some to me.

What i find also important,
is what external users see,
when they visit me
- which shoiuld be at https-website-name/@username

Which is why i would call that my channel homepage.

This also shows posts you reshare - which is different from a boost in activity pub, actually (confusing!).

Your reshare will not count as a boost of another original post on Mastodon for instance. Instead it will appear to be an unrelated post of your own resharing another original post elsewhere.

As such it will unfortunately also neither mirror any comments/discussion on that original post, nor be able to add to that, when people start commenting on your reshare.

Appears to be a weirdly fragmented model of discussion to me.

@_jayrope :hubzilla: Thanks for reading. So is it correct to say
channel homepage = my new posts + re-shares + any friends that have been allowed to post
network or stream = this I can only see, contains posts from connections BUT also my posts
public stream = public posts of one site or many sites

Is there a way to see and let others see my posts only in one instance where I am primarily registered and all posts in all instances (keeping comments out of discussion now, and assuming all my posts are public posts)?

The channel homepage is also called the wall. On Mastodon, it'd be your account, only that on Hubzilla you can allow people to post stuff on your wall which you can't do on Mastodon. Otherwise, it's everything you've written or reshared.

The stream is similar to your personal timeline on Mastodon: a) your own posts/reshares + comments, b) posts from your connections + comments, c) reshares from your connections + comments, d) boosts from your connections (without comments).

The public stream is the same as the local timeline on Mastodon. That is, many hubs don't have one; it has to be activated by the admin.

Thanks @Jupiter Rowland
That is very helpful information and looking forwards to such helpful participation from you always. Apart from Mastodon, I was just wanting to know what these 3 things means in entirety on their own and in comparison to other (popular?) platforms Friendika, Diaspora, Pleroma etc
The other questions remains
- how can I see ONLY my posts (new posts created by me) in my instance
- how can I see ALL my posts in all instances (public posts for example)

It would also be good if there is knowledge-base showing comparative words with similar meanings / functions in different fediverse projects, for example

Hbzlla/Strm --- Diaspora --- abc --- xyz --- etc

Connections --- Aspects --- *** --- *** --- etc

Not yet, but if I should ever start working on the Join the Fediverse Wiki, I may put something like this together.
