Confab Comments is a drop-in commenting solution for small scale sites such as blogs.

I made a post about 5 months ago showcasing this project, and by far the most requested feature was anonymous commenting. I'm happy to say I recently completed implementing this, and you can try out a demo on the website.

Features

Anonymous commenting + passwordless user authentication via email
Full markdown support
Comment edits (with edit history)
Admin moderation features, including a manual moderation queue, basic auto moderation, mass deletion and banning
Comment reply notifications and admin notifications via email

If you'd like to quickly spin up an instance yourself, Docker and bare metal instructions are provided in the quick start guide; you should additionally be able to find fairly comprehensive documentation here.

If you like what you see, feel free to leave me a star on GitHub :)

You can share a link here if you would like. ConfabUI is written in Svelte though, so I'm not sure how nice it would be to integrate with React.

The repository is not public (yet), so I created a gist with the relevant code for the transformations I have implemented. This is pure JS (typescript to be exact), I am not familiar with svelte, but maybe it's easier to plug them in. https://gist.github.com/souperk/6208d9401e4d5e47ab4b9d503b6e97c2
