It has been tried many times. Good luck to pgdog, but there’s a reason these projects don’t stick.

Multi master, from even a conceptual perspective, is incredibly complicated. Databases, transactions, consistency, parallelism are all very complicated.

It’s something that always seems promising at the start but as soon as maintenance and long term improvements enter the picture(ie integrating new Postgres versions), the complexity becomes too much.
