Why can’t we have federated identity to login into fediverse instead of creating login for each instance?

I can't use my account on another device until I input my password, so either way I need to use a password manager. If you reuse the same password (so you can remember it for hundreds of sites instead of using a password manager), being forced into using a key instead would actually be an improvement for your security.
