Ask HN: Facebook comments vs. Disqus vs. DIY in 2018
Currently building a site where comments will be somewhat important. The niche is comedy similar to 9gag.com. What would you use and why?
- stvnitt 9y agoThe main problem I have with Facebook comments is that it's harder for them to match the rest of your site, visually. Disqus comments usually seem to look more integrated to me. I'm not familiar with DIY so I can't speak to them.
- KajMagnus 9y agoCheck out Talkyard: https://www.talkyard.io/blog-comments https://www.talkyard.io/blog-comments. It's like Disqus but open-source, or hosted serverless (I'm developing it). You can add custom CSS (although some HTML class names might change, right now).
