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

Please tell me you haven't been creating accounts on every instace. You can register on one instance then use that account to interact with content and communities on all other instances.

No some communities need a new login. lemmy NSFW has no content without it. th there's the issue of having a slow instance like world vs another instance

[–] sunaurus@lemm.ee 32 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You don't need a new a account for this, just make sure you have "Show NSFW" enabled in your profile.

Not exactly because some instances defederate other instances. I'm pretty sure lemmynsfw is defederated by some instances (like Beehaw I think??), meaning you'd need an account on another instance in order to most properly view and participate.

[–] ultranaut@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Beehaw is not defederated from lemmynsfw.

[–] dingus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're right. I'm not sure why I thought they were. I wonder if they were temporarily at some point???? Or maybe I am just having a massive brain fart.

You might be thinking of lemmygrad or lemmyworld, there's a lot of lemmynames around these days :)

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Also it's kinda practical to have an alt for lemmynsfw since account activity is openly available

[–] V4uban@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

PornLemmy.com shows all comment even without an account

[–] Hotzilla@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does lemmynsfw.com and pornlemmy.com federate?

[–] V4uban@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I think they do

[–] funkless@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

this is the sturm and drang of every collaborative work I guess. Those led by a single person / company will produce a more streamlined but restrictive product. Those led by committee produce a more chaotic but free experience.

Others have already said, but I will reinterate:

You have to go to your account settings and enable "Show NSFW". It is off by default.

[–] TimewornTraveler@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Nah, it's been enabled, it's literally just that instance that wont show anything without an account on their instance.

Unless you mean the setting for my *.world account can be on everywhere else but OFF on the *nsfw instance alone??

[–] syl@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

I have an account on .world and can see NSFW content from lemmynsfw..
