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?

Yes, and no. You can access lemmy and kbin instances from mastadon. But the format doesn't work so well I think. I'm not sure how far it goes and how viable it is though. I'm not on mastadon.

But once you have an account on one of the threadiverse instances, defederation aside the same content should be available.
