Hi @darrendube and thanks for sharing,

we are experimenting with another solution, based on Cusdis. The main advantage is that Cusdis does not require a Github account to add a comment.

Cusdis already supports many frameworks and platforms like Vue, Hexo, React and should work with any static site builder

You can follow our ongoing discussions regarding Hugo implementation on Hugo's discourse

(The design of your website is awesome BTW!)

A quick follow-up after having a look at Utterances:

the authentification with Github, required to post a comment, may be of interest, but the process is a bit worrying:

utterances by utterances would like permission to:
Verify your GitHub identity (RoneoOrg)
Know which resources you can access
Act on your behalf

I appreciate the possibility to add reaction (emojii) to a comment though.

Does someone posting under one of your post get a notification when an answer is published?

No, I don't think they get a notification. It doesn't even seem possible to reply to a comment - you instead have to post a separate comment.

I do agree that the sign in process to post a comment would be a put off for some, so I hope your solution will solve that
