Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

I was wondering, did I miss the federated authentication service? When a user has a mastadon account on one of the federated services, it is possible to follow and post on mastodon, react on lemmy and follow lemmy users, but creating a lemmy post isn't possible. When a user has a lemmy account, interaction with mastodon is possible, but to follow you need a mastodon account.

Isn't there an authentication service, so you can create [email protected] and interact wuth all services?

Having multiple frontends on 1 server is an option (is being worked on), that that's a good alternative. That way you can have 1 identity on several fediverse environments.

For now I have multiple accounts (even multiple in mastodon and lemmy) and it works, but I'm just curious if having 1 multi-frontend account would be an option/is being worked on. WHen the fediverse has that, even a 'peopleverse' would be possible.
