Steve Bate@steve@social.technoetic.com: @silverpill @benpate I don't understand your point. Can you share your definition of "BYOD"? As we've discussed previously, I've brought my own domain to my self-hosted Mastodon server instance, but that doesn't make it an implementation (or instance) with multi-tenant capability.

@steve @benpate @takahe I've read your explanation in https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/pulls/835/files but I still don't get the difference between multitenancy and BYOD. It seems that BYOD is just a special case of multitenancy where tenant == user.

@steve @benpate Bring Your Own Domain is when you use your own domain for IDs/WebFinger while someone else hosts an instance (software). This means an instance will have more than one domain attached to it.

Yes, it's your instance and your domain. No "multi".
