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

Did it still have that awkward immutability aspect to it? Imo that's always been one of the other major downsides to the tech for wider use cases (the others being the scalability problems that in turn contribute to the energy problems).

Imo identity is way too dynamic to make sense making immutable records of, despite so many real world systems treating it as static.
