We are working on the ability to allow territory founders to host their territory on their own domain, e.g. forum.siggy.com. We ran into a bit of a roadblock, which we think we can route around in a novel way.
All three of us me, ek, sox are working on these hard, deep things right now. Most of them are nearing completion, and we should be able to you all the dividends of that work shortly after.

I haven't been following these developments closely, but I'm curious how that would work. Would it just make forum.siggy.com point to stacker.news/~BooksAndArticles? Would there be any added functionality or customization for the territory owners?

Yes it would point to the territory on SN (basically an alias) and be customizable (some customizations will, in time, also apply whether a territory has a custom domain or not … the goal is relatively extreme customizations given enough time - not just aesthetics, but custom post types and custom economics).
Basically, this domain thing allows white labeled, SN forums to exist on other properties (kind of like how substack lets authors have their own domains).

That sounds pretty cool. Come to think of it, I know a lot of sites use third party comments-section backends, like Giscus, and that seems like a natural fit for SN too

Yeah, this was @kr's idea. How do we give folks with existing communities sybil resistant forums?
