A problem with the federation is the combination of the identification, client, and backend into an instance, yet depending on the web/nets dns. I’d like to see more of a separation between the account, client, and data akin to google reader / third party reader client / rss. Before reader shut down, you could log into any reader client with your google account and all your feeds followed.
A good fediverse client would have separate settings pages for your accounts, and what you follow. I should be able to share a link to data that anyone can open in the client of their choice.
Another way to solve the authors problem is to make a new protocol.
