Are communities server-specific? i.e, is the "Gaming" community on lemmy.ml different from the one on, say, beehaw.org? (lemmy.ml)

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?

wait, what about if you have two communities where mods and admins are fine. Are there any options to federate those communities?

all this time I was under impression that communities already federate

There is not a single, god community. Any instance can make /c/startrek, and people can subscribe to both.

The only "universal community search" tool that we know of so far, is https://browse.feddit.de/ .

But I'd be very open to adding this type of functionality into lemmy's apps, and this UI too.
