Commento (privacy-focused)

If I am not misunderstanding what you are trying to built, it seems that it exists already: https://www.powr.io/comments-website-app or https://commento.io/

Thanks - that one is on my short list along with Commento.

You might wanna check out commento as I've heard good things. Haven't personally used but the impression I get from it is quite positive.

Commento (https://commento.io/ ) is a nice service that I've used with static site generators like Hugo -- very easy to add to a project - no real coding required to include it, and people can add comments to your blog etc... Honest straightforward pricing model for their SASS offering, and it's open source, so you can host it yourself if you have a server.

Given that I don't want to rely on proprietary services, does anyone know of a Commento to Notado's Disqus? (i.e. equivalent but self-hostable and open-source)

Something like Commento?

Commento (Open Source, available as a service, local install, or docker image)

Also, put down Markdown and give our Scroll a try: https://scroll.pub

It now powers sites like my own blog (https://breckyunits.com/), knowledge bases like PLDB.com, and our first new public domain daily newspaper called the Long Beach Pub (https://longbeach.pub/1-3-2023.html).

Here you go, get the full site without hitting my web server: `git clone https://github.com/breck7/breckyunits.com`

>> So if you write a book, and sell it for $20, and I make a copy of your book and sell it for $10, you are ok with this?

If I make a hammer, and sell it for $20, and the person I sell it to uses it to make more hammers that he sells for $10, are you okay with this?

Your question shows a shallowness of thinking. What is a book? Did you come up with 100% of the words in the book? If not, are you tracking down and compensating all the people who invented the words you used (or their ancestors?). What about the letters? Let's talk about the machinery you used to print the book. Are you providing a "royalty" to the printing press manufacturer?

The problem with me wasting my time is that your question is so basic and shows such lack of thought that I can't distinguish whether you are being genuine or are a paid shill by the (c)opywrong regime out there muddying the waters. And yes, there are a tremendous amount of paid shills out there spreading false and dishonest information about (c)opywrongs.

I feel like kicking this story up a notch: Visit his TreeNotation website, best illustrated at [1] and then back up to his root Github repo [2].I'm finding this stuff a serious time sink :-)

Multiple columns for wide windows is something I find interesting. I haven't seen anyone do a two-column layout which I find satisfactory. https://breckyunits.com/ is a fascinating example, but the layout goes vertically, so the result is bizarre: the most recent article will be cheek by jowl with an old page from 2012. I think it would need be the opposite, wrap horizontally, and scroll-in-place. Something like that. If I ever make another site, I might try to do something along those lines (and maybe use a red/blue centric color scheme).
