Commento++

Commento++ is a fork of Commento, a comment box that a static website embeds in place of Disqus. Its README says the fork came from fixing many bugs after the original maintainer seemingly disappeared, and it adds a comment moderation dashboard and wildcard domains. The widget attaches to a page with a script tag served from the instance’s own server. The server needs a PostgreSQL database and can be run from a Dockerfile, a pre-compiled binary or a build from source, with deploy buttons for Heroku and Railway. Souradip Mookerjee, the fork’s author, maintains it.
