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

    From my understanding, yes. You can also follow Lemmy communities on mastodon and have their posts show up in your feed. @[email protected] I believe that’s the right format? Someone will undoubtedly correct me if I’m wrong.

      Yes, you that is the right format. See for example, my post I made on lemmy.world instance - showing up in the @[email protected] feed with my mastodon.social account. For that to work, you have to have the community address and look for it via the search on the mastodon instance. Once you found the community, you can follow it, like any other person. There are some limitations (im not sure which exactly yet)

      Screenshot is made in the mastodon instance.
