Confab Comments is a drop-in commenting solution for small scale sites such as blogs.
I made a post about 5 months ago showcasing this project, and by far the most requested feature was anonymous commenting. I’m happy to say I recently completed implementing this, and you can try out a demo on the website.
Features
- Anonymous commenting + passwordless user authentication via email
- Full markdown support
- Comment edits (with edit history)
- Admin moderation features, including a manual moderation queue, basic auto moderation, mass deletion and banning
- Comment reply notifications and admin notifications via email
If you’d like to quickly spin up an instance yourself, Docker and bare metal instructions are provided in the quick start guide; you should additionally be able to find fairly comprehensive documentation here.
If you like what you see, feel free to leave me a star on GitHub :)
Thanks for taking the time to check it out, I will look into what I can do to improve those issues. It’s basically impossible to get usability insights like this when you’re the only person working on something, so this is much appreciated, thank you!
Yeah it’s very easy to get too comfortable with your project and lose track of the UX.
Good luck!
