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

If you post a link to this, then I click that link, I am unable to reply directly, since I am on lemmy.world. I would need to first track down the equivalent post in my instance to reply. SSO solves this

Oh I see. Yeah, there could be a feature (a browser addon would work too) that reads the webpage meta data before opening it, and pops a "Open in kbin/lemmy/whatever?" window.
