Let's say I'm visiting lemmy.ml/post/1234, and I'd like to view the same post but under lemmy.world. is there a pattern or something I can do to do this?

That sounds like a very difficult circle to square.

If you notice this icon:

That button takes you to the "original" version, with the ID of that comment/post on the home instance of whoever posted it. I'd start by looking into how that button works on the github page. I don't know typescript, so I don't know where to look there, but it's gotta be coded somewhere

this could be a good point to start from, thanks!
