This is great so thank you for this. I'm assuming this won't work for any sites containing sign-up forms or with comments enabled correct? Being serverless, no forms would work correct?

@capdragon Indeed not at the moment, although I recognise a form mailer will be essential for many. I'm looking to integrate something like this: github.com/DJAndries/terraform-aws... along with a bundled plugin that'll let you formpost as you usually expect.

For my own sites, I'm using a Facebook comment plugin, but again I think I could rustle up an acceptable alternative to this in time.

If you need comments, and your target audience are devs (well, GitHub users), then I can only recommend giscus, which leverages GitHub discussions for comments: giscus.vercel.app/
