This tracking stuff is a plaque and I'm part of the problem. I run an unpopular site with random bits of information on it that uses AdSense to give me a few bucks a month and Disqus to allow comments.
Uhg. I really need to think about whether I want to be part of the problem.
- em3rgent0rdr 10y agosomebody in the other thread mentioned https://www.discourse.org/ https://www.discourse.org/ as an open-source alternative to disqus, although there were some people that downvoted it, so I don't know how good it is.
- daxelrod 10y agoDiscourse is primarily a better alternative to bulletin-board style forums. Here's their docs on embedding, which seems like it would make it act a little more like disqus. https://meta.discourse.org/t/embedding-discourse-comments-via-javascript/31963 https://meta.discourse.org/t/embedding-discourse-comments-vi... Note that a major difference is that you apparently have to go into the forum page to leave a comment, you can't do it from the page you're discussing.
- greggman 10y agoDisqus = paste some markup in your page and done Discourse = set up at least a 2gig server then figure out how to integrate with your site. On that level they aren't really comparible.
