Every social network has been given its fediverse clone. Asking people to hold a separate account on each is taking the problem backwards.
If the fediverse keeps mirroring the GAFAM, it loses. The point was never to rebuild their world, but to offer something else: one identity across every content.
HolosSocial is simply a try. But we can do it.

I've been advocating that it should be possible to use the same identity on all websites for -- checking notes -- 22 years now. All users get it. Developers are often strangely reluctant, like in the Fediverse today.

Would be nice if that became part of an ActivityPub 2.0. We could use more people speaking up about this in the W3C, consider joining the conversation there.

From an app dev perspective, designing UX around one identity across different content types is tough, but it's way better than building another clone.

With your own domain, your account is no longer tied to a single instance or platform. You can move, switch, evolve, the identity stays yours.
Switching with one tap between video, photo or blogging is just cosmetic. But the fediverse allows it natively. That's what's missing today. You don't need a lookalike platform to tell you what kind of content you're allowed to see or share.
