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?

I feel like Lemmy/Kbin should indicate the host along with the community name. (i.e. @gaming@lemmy.ml)

They do, given it's not on your instance. See the attached screenshot, the host website is in the same format you mentioned:

not in kbin, you have to mouse over the name to see the host
