I'm commenting here from another instance (feddit.de) where I'm logged in and this community is available at https://feddit.de/c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world

Similarly, you can just access communities from other instances here, e.g. https://lemmy.world/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

but like if there are two Gaming communities on different instances, do they merge? or are they separate?

They are separate. Think of community names like email addresses: john.smith@here.edu is different from john.smith@there.com

Similarly, gaming@lemmy.ml is different from gaming@beehaw.org

This is the best explanation.

They don't merge, they're like different subreddits, you can see both and comment/subscribe on both, not sure there's something like multi-reddit, haven't see it yet but I'm pretty new myself.

Yeah, definitely confused about this + mobile access, since I haven't tried to use lemmy.world on a phone yet...

The mobile experience is not great yet. the last 6 months with mastodon clients though gives me confidence this will not be a problem soon. I already pinged Christian Selig about pulling an Ivory :D

Fingers and toes crossed. Typing on a laptop feels too old-school for me lmao

On Android I use "Jerboa for Lemmy" and it works great. I only couldn't find how to create communities in the app.
