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.

so I can use my mastodon.social login to view lemmy.world?

From my understanding, yes. You can also follow Lemmy communities on mastodon and have their posts show up in your feed. @fediverse@lemmy.world I believe that’s the right format? Someone will undoubtedly correct me if I’m wrong.

Yes, you can. See my post I made on lemmy.world - showing up in the feed of @fediverse@lemmy.world using my mastodon.social account (in the mastodon app). For that to work you have to have the community address and look for it via the search on the mastodon instance.

Screenshot is made in the mastodon instance.
