### What is federation?
Federation is about creating open protocols so that different servers can communicate with each other. Once Forgejo gains federation support via the [ForgeFed](https://forgefed.org/) protocol, you'll be able to do things like create issues for projects on other Forgejo instances without creating an account on that instance. But federation doesn't just solve the problem of having to create many Forgejo accounts. The power of federation comes from building an interoperable ecosystem, since any other code collaboration site or development tool can also add ForgeFed support. Just look at GitHub: it's the epicenter of a giant ecosystem of apps and integrations and tools that cements GitHub’s position. It's a textbook example of a walled garden. We want to replicate this, but in an open ecosystem where everything speaks the ForgeFed protocol, so you’re never locked-in by which forge or code collaboration software that you use.

### Is Forgejo federation development being worked on right now?
