They should have separated identification and content.
Make a unified id system and then let people host their own communities on the federated level.
This would have been expecially important as you can’t really move your account among instances, and would have make the registration process also much easier for normal users who just want to use the platform
The only protocols I’ve seen which do this require users to use PGP/GPG keys. Its very definitively not user friendly. I’d rather the Lemmy and KBin devs emphasize their focus on other improvements rather than reinvent how the fediverse, including mastodon, does authentication
That’s is one of major Lemmy flaw IMHO

The point of Lemmy is decentralisation. No one thing has ultimate power
You can make identification decentralized/distributed too
Just in a different way so that it is unequivocal
