I have a question about communities. Are communities server-specific, for example, is the "Gaming" community on lemmy.ml different from the one on, say, beehaw.org and will I need to join both?

I would argue that "viewable from" is a far cry from truly federated. The fact that I have to subscribe to infinitely many individual communities to see all, say, "Technology" content across all of lemmy seems like a near-fatal flaw to me.
