No we aren’t. We are an instance focused on autonomy and anti-censorship.
(Yes this is somewhat sarcastic, as I’m trying to point out that you are posting on a federated forum. Your instance focused is irrelevant to everyone but your own users)

Well yes, that’s rather the point. I run this instance for my community. I have no interest in turning my instance in to a generic login proxy for “free speech”
I guess I’m not understanding what your idea of a federated login looks like from your server perspective. I think that might be the fundamental problem as that idea is different for different people.
What I would envision a federated login looks like in the case of AP:
I are directed to a post on your forum. I don’t have a login to your forum and my home server has not subscribed to that forum from your server yet. I login at your server which redirects to my home instance, subscribes to the given forum and pulls in the post in question, automatically.
That seems like some extra steps now that I actually give the mechanics a thought and I think this can be resolved by an extra button on a post that does the above.
