Those of us who were on the net in the 90s, we had to make accounts for every forum / community site we wanted to use, it wasn't a big deal. Nowadays if you go over to reddit, they're convinced any site you have to create an account for is doomed to fail. Even one like this one, which similar to email, connects you with a wider network outside of the one you signed up on.
Exactly I would say the only thing that I find could improve the fediverse would be the adoption of open ID that way we could login to any instance of lemmy or mastodon using our home insurance. But I could be missing an obvious flaw with that.
