Don't know if this is possible and possibly would be better if it was implemented from Lemmy/the Fediverse itself, but would it be possible to group subscriptions of different instances that share the same name/topic?

For example, I am subscribed to Asklemmy on both lemmy.world and lemmy.ml and have to browse each individually even if they share the same name/topic.

Sorry if I didn't grasp how it works correctly, am still trying to discover how the Fediverse works

kbin has this -- the feature is called collections. https://kbin.social/magazines/collections

you can make public ones that others can follow, or private ones to make curated feeds for yourself.

Oh that's awesome! I've also got a Kbin account so that's good to know.

are there any breaking incompatibilities between kbin and lemmy?

Good question. In the past, there have been some federation issues. However, things have seemed fine for awhile now. I will admit that it's entirely possible that there are issues that I may not be aware of. I don't do any extensive testing as I'm just a regular user, and /kbin is a younger platform which tries to do something different from lemmy and mastodon. If the Collections feature interests you, I might suggest just making a kbin account to give it a test run. You can essentially have the same feed you do now thanks to federation, but with the added benefit of feeds more suited to your interests. Public Collections are also very useful for discovering similar communities across the fediverse.
