Lemmy.world is one of many lemmy instances. Any Lemmy instance will show posts on their “all” page from instances they’re federated with. Generally, you can subscribe to and comment in federated communities.
Depending on your viewer/app, you’ll see the instance following an @ sign. For example, username [email protected] means that account is on the sh.itjust.works instance. Similar for communities.
May have missed some finer points but that’s generally how it works.
