Ask HN: Facebook comments vs. Disqus vs. DIY in 2018

1 pointsby taesuover 7 years ago
Currently building a site where comments will be somewhat important. The niche is comedy similar to 9gag.com. What would you use and why?

Check out Talkyard: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.talkyard.io&#x2F;blog-comments" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.talkyard.io&#x2F;blog-comments</a>. It&#x27;s like Disqus but open-source, or hosted serverless (I&#x27;m developing it).<p>You can add custom CSS (although some HTML class names might change, right now).

The main problem I have with Facebook comments is that it&#x27;s harder for them to match the rest of your site, visually. Disqus comments usually seem to look more integrated to me. I&#x27;m not familiar with DIY so I can&#x27;t speak to them.
