Nebula comment section through Lemmy? (self.nebula)

I've been on nebula for a while now. A thing that I miss compared YouTube is the comment section.

It allows interaction between creators and viewers as well as amongst viewers themselves. I love picking up details in the comments about the video I'm watching or just watched.

The idea has been floating around for over 3 years on this now declining platform. https://www.reddit.com/r/watchnebula/comments/foqjt1/nebula_comment_section/

Given that Lemmy is decentralized, I can totally see the Nebula team integrating comments through a Lemmy instance.

What do do you all think?

I imagine not many creators are terribly keen on the task of moderating such a system. Even if the amount of assholes is reduced by having to pay for it, it may still be nonzero. I can also imagine it to be a liability issue.
Plus there's no need for it.
Nothing stops you from discussing their videos with the community on any platform. Those who have access will be able to use the link. The YouTube crowd can join in once it's up there, but most will probably stay on YouTube.
