Why can’t we have federated identity to login into fediverse instead of creating login for each instance?

Yeah I think the main actually viable use case for the fact that Lemmy and Mastodon can cross-interact is just when a Mastodon user gets @mentioned on Lemmy and is able to reply to it from there. And vice versa. You don't want to actually be browsing Lemmy from Mastodon.
