looks good, but when comparing it to CommentBox.io I have to say that their blurb of "No ads. No Tracking. Just Comments.
Hosted commenting that's painless to embed, a pleasure to use, and a breeze to moderate." is _exactly_ what I want. I _think_ you offer the same thing (not sure about the moderation), but they tell me that up front. that being said their $5 per 100 comments is effing scary if anything gets unexpectedly popular.

To be fair: "no tracking" is only half-true, as you need to login to post a comment and the first three options include Facebook, Google and Twitter. It's up to the user to use the Email login instead, but "no tracking" is strictly speaking not correct.

Thank you for the feedback. Copy writing is really hard and I will work on getting the proper details upfront.

Sorry for the off-topic (and cyberstalking :), but that blog post about Instagram's acquisition by FB? It has not aged well, but would be interesting with an update 6 years later.

Thank you for the advice. I added an update to the top which reads:
This post was originally written from a place of jealousy and bitterness.
Turns out I was wrong about this transaction and for better-or-worse,
Facebook (and Mark Zuckerburg) solidified their edge as the king of social for the last 6 years.
