I've been considering adding comments to my static website for a while. I already deploy the website over IPFS, so that [in theory] the entire website can be distributed, and it can be duplicated/cached, etc when I have a spotty internet connection. Ideally, I would also have the comments published directly on IPFS as well, rather than having the comments be retrieved from somewhere external to the IPFS network. Your code should let me deal with that - just have the comment system fire off an email to me when a user posts a comment, and a daemon running on my PC can publish the comment next time it's online. Plus, I get easy email notifications :)
Such an approach seems a bit convoluted though. I'm not used to web programming, wherein it seems like every popular approach to hosting something as simple as a blog comes with pretty significant drawbacks or limitations. I'm much more fond of working in environments which offer an objectively "right" way to do every task.
