@ilyess I use an OSS app called Remark42. Essentially a self hosted Disqus. I went with it as it was dead simple to set up on a static site and supported importing from Wordpress.

@pieceofthepie Very interesting! Thanks for sharing.

How has your experience been with moderation and fighting spam?

@ilyess touch wood, I've had no issues at. I don't remember having any spam at all. Maybe that's cause it's naturally resistant, maybe it's because traffic is very light.

@pieceofthepie That's great! The comment section looks nice and fits well within the overall theme of your blog. I guess you can easily style that section in Remark42? I need to investigate this further; it looks promising.

By the way, do you have an RSS feed for your blog I can add to my reader? I love the stuff you write about.

@ilyess actually I think that's pretty much stock styling. It just happened to slot in well - but then I did make the theme so I was able to make adjustments.

There is an atom feed though I've not tested it in anger. It should be discoverable as its all tagged up appropriately.

@pieceofthepie You're right. My RSS reader was able to figure out the feed link from the homepage automatically. It seems to work fine. Thank you!
