It’s absurdly expensive to offer, because none of the major implementations support serving multiple domains in a single process, so you end up with a lot of duplication.

I wonder if Meta's Threads is being built with that capability. I would expect an incumbent player to make an entrance into this market and they seem like the furthest along in capacity and capabilities.

Takahe is the only one that is doing it, but unfortunately Andrew stopped working on it.
this looks dope, I'm going to have to take a closer look now that I've heard of it. Does seem the project is in danger of being sunset unless new support comes in the way of the developer:

> TLDR: I am looking for new developers and maintainers for Takahē who want to help in exchange for my mentorship, or I'll have to sunset the project.

The repo is still being updated so it doesn't look like it's in too much danger:

It seems that most of the work is going on at a fork, now: https://github.com/avaraline/incarnator
hooray! Thanks for sharing, this is great to see. I used to follow the ecosystem much more closely than I do now but I'm definitely looking to jump back in soon.
