Just one? One on many instance? Multiple on one instance? Biggest reasons?

That's true in most cases, but i've had a lot more success posting stuff to my furry-specific Mastodon instance than posting hte same thing to generic Twitter and Bluesky. So there's something to the ability to have a specific audience.

But i genuinely have an issue when i go to upvote or reply and it tells me that i'm not logged in, and that's when i find out that i've accidentally left my instance and am not logged in anymore. That kind of thing shouldn't happen at all, it shouldn't be this easy to accidentally land in a different instance.

That happens all the time with links, If you clicked on this link you'd wind up here again, but on yiffit instead of pawb. Similarly, if I'm browsing some instance and find something I want to comment on, its a bit of a task to find the post on my home instance to make a comment. There are a couple tools around, but it would be nice if there was something built in to take you back to the same spot in your home instance.

The discovery bit is federation is not automatic. If nobody has visited something, you can't even search to find it. You have to go find it elsewhere, go home and search for that specifically so it could be found again. And if nobody is subscribed, it won't update. Its still very rough around the edges.
