    Thanks for the feedback. I'll add Akismet integration to the backlog for people with the same objection. Allowing people to pass an API key to their Namespace shouldn't be too difficult but I'll need to build out a UI for sep

    I've optimized the codebase to scale. Please use it on your small site with no traffic for free. My biggest hope is for a large number of sites to use this. I've been operating Remarkbox for the last 5 years. Plan is to grow and t

    I can help you migrate your comments into Remarkbox (founder). I used to be able to import users but they stopped exporting email addresses from the disqus XML. So instead I import user surrogates. Reach out directly, Remarkbox is free now!
