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

The process to open a link on your home instance is just way too complicated right now. Some sort of browser presence could help redirect users to the right places.

Agreed I haven't spent much time using Lemmy on an app but I'm hoping those can make it easier somehow atleast for mobile users.

Some sort of browser presence

It seems like it could be as easy as a redirect in Apache/nginx so that local-format links are laundered through.
