That IS your "Home" feed - if you disable Boosts and replies (so you don't see boosts and replies by people you follow, just their OP toots.). In the masto web ui, expand the Feed at the top.
In other clients you'll have to find those settings, if they're even implemented.

I just tried this - all of the people I see in Home feed, I am not following.
How can I view posts from JUST people I am explicitly following?
@jrovu I think in that case you run into the other thing: hashtags you follow? A LIST would get you the other thing (JUST the hashtags u follow), but LISTs only work for accounts, not hashtags, sadly. And you can filter certain hashtags, but I don't know how to show JUST the hashtags (as a whole - you can view a feed for a single hashtag).
@tezoatlipoca That could be a good workaround - creating a list called "Following". I don't see the option to quickly add a person to a list... How do I do that?
@jrovu I get what you're asking for, but I don't think either is available in any masto-if/client that Ive tried.
1. just posts (no boost/replies/mentions) and not hashtags
2. just hashtags no posts
I would strongly recommend #Mastodon team consider building this feature.
I have some generic, wide-ranging hashtags (#Music, #Python) - Most of this is noise to me, but occasionally I find great people I want to follow.
Most of the time, I'd like to JUST see a feed of the people I'm following - without seeing all the cruft.
Currently, that seems difficult, without explicitly adding everyone I follow to a list - tedious. Make sense?
