But it is no longer updated, is it? Thanks anyway for the work on sold.

  Sold was just mold under a commercial license. Mold is still maintained and now licensed permissively.

    That's true but mold doesn't have MacOS support.

  > But it is no longer updated, is it? Essentially, yes, but that’s because Apple’s new linker is so much faster than it was. You can use it instead.

      I don't know the details, but once it is proven that achieving lld/mold/sold-level performance is technically feasible, it shouldn't be extremely hard to achieve similar success for macOS.
