Ask HN: Best comment box free or commercial?
I need to add a comment box to my website. I looked into Disqus - but given recent hack is concerning. Any recommendations for a comment plugin ? I don't want to migrate my website to medium or other CMS platform since it's mostly ready already.

What tech stack does your website use? Can I ask what do you write about? Maybe a link?
Anyway, the commeting system I'm developing, has some unique ideas — look here: https://www.effectivediscussions.org/-32/how-hacker-news-can.... However, I haven't ported all that to embedded-comments yet.
It's open source for installation on your own server (https://github.com/debiki/ed-server) — or $2/month hosting if you don't want to install things yourself. Currently there are no installation instructions ... but I'm actually planning to deploy a new server version later today, with installation instructions.
