Do you foresee more hosting providers offering one-click, fully managed, ActivityPub deployments? (elest.io)

Is this a growing product market? Will this lower the barrier to entry for less technical communities, much like the wave of turn-key WordPress hosting solutions did for the general public starting in the mid 2000s?

Looks like there are instance options for Mastodon, Lemmy, but not yet Kbin:

?

Does anyone know of similar competitors to Elestio in this sub-market?

One click ActivityPub instances make a lot of sense for a light version of Mastodon. Many people with their own domains would prefer micro-blogging with their own domain names instead of relying on someone elses instance. If fediverse reaches mainstream, managed, light micro-blogging could be a good product for these providers.
