Saw this post the other day and was inspired to make something slightly more stupid, plus it gave me an excuse to work on my website, lol

    I have been looking for an alternative recently, I was going to publish an article about why I dropped disqus and my search for an alternative but I never saw this. I guess the search term “self-hosted website comments” has all its SEO clogged up with Disqus by now. Will check this out though, thanks!

      It’s pretty nice except how abandonwar-y all of Matrix feels. I run cactus here – https://reticulated.net/

      It’s kind of annoying that you have to join the matrix room every time you post but still better than Disqus or those weird git repo comment systems

        Ah I will look into that, maybe there’s a Matrix library I can implement so that I don’t have to do that manually, lol.
