Comment based systems built on top of existing platforms such as Matrix may be interesting.
For want of a better word there's a "misconception" that the Matrix protocol can only be used for chat apps, but instead it's defined a fully open, federated and encrypted event transmission service which can be used for any type of multiuser application.
- mxuribe 5y ago100% THIS! I believe (hope!) that as more people understand that the matrix protocol is *not only* a chat protocol, but far more than that, then we will see many more different ideas flourish. There are already ideas for leveraging matrix for a blog...so why not for commenting, and other scenarios?
