Self-hosted bloggers : welcome Fediverse comments directly below your posts
Hi,
I created this project that allows bloggers to integrate comments from the Fediverse to their articles, currently from Mastodon and Lemmy, using a plug & play client-only iframe, that saves readers from copy/pasting post URLs to their home instance.
Your comments from here will appear there ;)

Pretty cool but flashbang, https://github.com/TymekDev/no-js-dark-mode-toggle
I don't see the comments from here on there...
Wow, epic fail. 😭
I don't know why the API returns an empty array when the web page shows comments, I didn't have this issue using an older post 🤔
It works now !
If you're curious, here's the fix
If you're using WordPress, the activitypub plugin does this also. It's good to have choices.
That sounds awesome
It works now !

Thanks ! Though it doesn't seem to be working yet 😭
Sadly this doesn't seem to be working (as of Mon Sept 22 2025, 01:11 AM UTC).
Update (Wed Sept 24 2025 17:17 UTC): It works!

Testing replies and edits...
It works now !

This is a great idea. I am not very experienced in web development, do you think this can work on my static website?
Yes, though it's not ready for production use yet, case in point : this demo doesn't even work 😅
Hahaha noted! I will pay attention to this sub for when the project is ready
It works now !

I've been using a similar solution with my static site at https://zakreviews.com/ for years.
Yeah, I created this project in order to me more straightforward, low-code, just embedding an iframe, and the rest is taken care of.
Looks very nice, is there a tutorial you could share for me to implement something similar?
Here's a tutorial for mastodon https://carlschwan.eu/2020/12/29/adding-comments-to-your-static-blog-with-mastodon/
I used that code with a couple tweaks. I tag ![email protected] in the posts so they appear there as well.
Oh! That's very handy. I will try and implement my own and then leave a thank you comment in there as well hahah
