The alternative is rewriting the code of Go into Rust or vice versa.

And if rewrite is Rust->Go way, also continual effort of porting any bugfixes in upstream lib.

I dare to say more complex toolchain is the easier and less time consuming part.

I wouldn't do it in this particular case (converting with mastodon powered html is probably simple enough) but it wouldn't be a terrible solution in some cases.

What's more interesting is if you use same method for app plugins, now you can compile anything in WASM and as long as it have right hooks it can be used in your app as a plugin

This is more work up front, but it’s better engineering.
