Why aren't private communities on PieFed federated? (feddit.online)

Is that different for Lemmy? If so, why is PieFed's approach to private communities different from Lemmy's?

Real answer: private communities were released LAST MONTH and so far only for PieFed.

Federating would mean a new protocol for potentially both Lemmy and PieFed to agree on. Rules need to be agreed on over how data is handled. New UI/UX. Mod tools to allow communities to block instances that may leak private information. Encryption? Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

Give it time.
