 Fedimint only has one lightning gateway serving the whole federation... that's a single point of failure.   Each node in the federation should be running a lightning gateway to make the federation truely highly available.

 THERE CAN BE MULTIPLE GATEWAYS. THEY WILL COMPETE ON FEES AND RELIABILITY.  YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A FEDERATION GUARDIAN TO RUN ONE ALTHOUGH MANY WILL BE.

 Where do I find the documentation on how to set this up and learn more about this?   When I'm reading the Fedimint.org website it still seems like it's one gateway per Fedimint.

 So I found the spot on the website that mentions multiple lightning gateways but it seems like a work in progress as of now.  So I'll keeps tabs on the progress of this over this year.

 Bottom of this page...

https://fedimint.org/docs/GettingStarted/What-is-a-Fedimint

"It is anticipated there will be a process by which a Lightning Gateway registers it's service with the federation to ease discovery, but it would also be possible to have multiple unannounced gateways that users could contract with directly."
