No that's decentralization, federating is when you can share the info natively outside the platform.

share the info natively outside the platform.

I'm not even sure that makes sense.
Federating is based on protocols not platforms. And what does it mean to share natively if not using the protocol?

Luckily most of us on here are nerds so it’s all good.
