Confab Comments is a drop-in commenting solution for small scale sites such as blogs.

Features:

• Passwordless user authentication via Email
• Full markdown support
• Comment edits (with edit history)
• Comment reply notifications
• Admin moderation features, including a manual moderation queue, basic auto moderation, mass deletion and banning

See the website for a demo, and see the quick start docs if you’re interested in quickly setting up an instance yourself (Docker and bare metal install instructions provided).

Source code is available on GitHub, and is licensed under AGPL-3.0.

I created this project to implement comments on my own blog. This is the first project I’ve publicly released, so any feedback/contributions are welcome. If you like what you see, feel free to leave me a star on GitHub :)
