Sorry about that carousel. I want to get rid of Disqus entirely (when I started the blog in 2012 they were not so icky). But, then I think about related yak-shaving, like moving off of Jekyll...

I’ve been down that rabbit hole myself. My blog is still running Jekyll but my comments are now on a self-hosted install of Commento. It works pretty well. For me the main feature is that it’s not Disqus, but another nice benefit is that comments support Markdown now!

It's all good. The error was mine. Disqus was, indeed, a great product back then. I didn't realize they added all this stuff now.
