That's not how it works, you'll always access everything from a url that begins with "lemmy.one".
If you aren't, you need to flip it around, for example:
beehaw.org/c/news
becomeslemmy.one/c/[email protected]
Same goes for kbin, to access kbin "magazines" the url would be something like:
lemmy.one/c/[email protected]
Of course, you don't actually have to manually edit stuff in the address bar, most of the time, you'll just seamlessly see "outside" communities in your feed, and be able to click them and open them. You probably have been without realizing. You posted this in a community thats from lemmy.ml.
Also, if editing the url doesn't work, you can also paste a url to a community into search, in your instance (even a url for other instances), to make your instance look it up for you.
