This is a good question! I don't know enough to answer correctly, but answering wrong will likely have someone correcting me ;)
I believe each instance will have local posts/comments, e.g. a local version of /l/gaming but there are 3 methods of viewing posts: local instance (all communities/posts for users on that instance), all (all communities on all instances), or communities (all instances, but specific community). I suspect filtering will improve to bring better ways of filtering and sorting, but it's going to be dependent on the lemmy app, mobile app, and potentially custom mods on an instance.
