@lina@vt.social I see. The one UX hole in this would be that to join your friend’s space that was created on another hosting, you have to sign in again. (The Gitlab problem.)
Unless you’re storing your token client side and the app handles all the authentications with additional data sources. But then how do your different clients know what spaces you’re in? There would need to be some state that is updated and passed back to the identity server.

@be_far@social.treehouse.systems @lina@vt.social I assume it might be more like Matrix, where your "home" server is responsible for your identity *and* your configuration? (Or sort of like connecting to an IRC bouncer.) At least that's my understanding of identity federation, i.e. many identity/account servers but you still live on a specific one – not necessarily "my identity is based on my id_ecdsa.key".
