Then, would it be a better idea to create one mega-fediverse app that combines but also separates all the different features of each platform (eg: when viewing it on a browser, it would have a Lemmy tab, matrix tab, mastodon tab, etc) and then have the functionality and format be separate for each one of those instead of trying to pull a "can do everything, good at nothing" type of platform? That would solve the email issue, but I feel it would be more complicated to implement but I've also never developed anything remotely like that ever and so I'm not qualified to speak on it.
Honestly, I feel like the answer you're looking for is a federated single sign on app. The real challenge will be building the right tools and community mindset for determining what a "trusted" instance is.
i agree there is an auto-federated SSO opportunity here, but it be dangerous.
