#commento — Public Fediverse posts

...and #Commento is totally down again, serving 504s for most requests

As is https://status.commento.io/. I guess returning a 504 for your service status page makes the status about as clear as it can be.

Fortunately, I grabbed my data a couple days ago.

I'm looking for a new comment system for my #Hugo blog, and I'm not seeing any clearly great options.

I've been using #Commento for #comments on my blog for a few years now, and it's about time to switch comment systems.

Commento has been effectively unmaintained for 4 years (see https://gitlab.com/commento/commento). Their (paid) hosted version has been continuing to work, but I've seen increasing numbers of errors lately, so it's time to move.

I'd really *love* something that could integrate semi-natively with #activitypub so new blog posts could show up in Mastodon and Mastodon replies would show up as comments, *but* I don't want to require a fediverse account for commenters; that rules out most (all?) of the embedded-Mastodon comment options.. After looking through Hugo's somewhat-outdated list of commenting options (https://gohugo.io/content-management/comments/), it looks like #Discourse is the only option that even *slightly* fits that, and it's a lot heavier-weight than I really want to run today. Hours-of-maintenance-per-comment should be less than 1, thanks.

Basic requirements:

- Either easy to self-host or has a cheap hosted option.
- Allows anonymous comments plus common external auth options.
- Possible to import comments from Commento, possibly requiring code on my part, but it needs to allow arbitrary names, etc.
- Works with static sites.
- Not a privacy disaster
- If self-hosted, ideally written in something sane -- Go, Rust, etc. *Ideally* it's a single binary that listens to HTTP and stores comments in Postgres.
- Supports Markdown.

Does anyone have anything that they're really happy with?

Commento breve all’omicidio di Civitanova Marche…

"Bella compra i miei fazzoletti o dammi un euro".

Sembra che sia  morto per questa frase, Alika Ogorchukwu, cittadino nigeriano di 39 anni, venditore ambulante, sposato e con una figlia. 

Nessuno è intervenuto. Hanno solo ripreso la scen

@kev Thanks! I looked for that and somehow still missed it with my quick scan. This is great, very clean, and #foss
@jmehne, good luck with whichever direction you go. The dockerfile for #commento looks pretty straight forward.

@DerMario @gnulinux Da stimme ich dir zu,aber bitte drauf achten,dass es dann ein datenschutzfreundliches wird,also kein Disqus.Ich empfehle #Commento ,siehe https://comment.cdn.bka.li/login fuer eine oeffentliche Instanz.

It's almost one week that we cannot download any binary release of #commento due to the bucket access being closed 🙄

I also wrote in the IRC channel.

@marian #Commento is a very good free and open source software.If you don't want to selfhost it,I recommend the instance https://comment.cdn.bka.li

Uh, #Commento does require postgresql which I would like to avoid (just to not install another database server). Maybe I could give #Isso a try instead.

I just realised that my website requires JS 🤫

Mainly because of #Disqus, but I don't think it's ever possible to provide a comment service without using JS. Still, I should switch to #Commento.

#MakeJavaScriptOptional

Wouldn't it be great to have an #ActivityPub-enabled edition of #Commento? 🤔

Sick about proprietary comment platform Disqus?

Commento is an alternative replacement! Implement it on your blog / website and make the web a wee bit free'er.

Commento indeed is an fast, open source, privacy-focused commenting platform. Self-host and embed it on your own server, in a container, or on a cloud provider.

Who knows any other viable ones to replace Disqus?
