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.
