Hi, a direct link to the demo page https://just-comments.com/demo.html https://just-comments.com/demo.html I am looking for the feedback and users because I think the project is quite ready for real usage. Thanks!

Had to read the documentation to see that serving the comments-widget one time consumes 1 credit, but sending a single email-notification consumes 15. It seems very "expensive" to send emails. Looks like a cute product, and the pricing mechanism is interesting. Good luck. (I wrote some a simple self-hosted system, far less featureful, but it seems popular enough - http://github.com/skx/e-comments/ http://github.com/skx/e-comments/ )

  Thanks for the link to your system. Is there a demo instance somewhere? Yeah, emails are quite expensive. AWS itself charges $100 per 1 million plus additional infrastructure to manage subscriptions + email validation & dealing with bounces. Therefore, email notifications are an optional feature. I hope in the future push notifications will be supported much better by the browsers so that it won't make sense to use emails.

    There used to be a demo, but the site the comments were designed for is now defunct so it was removed.

      It would be cool if you could add a "Deploy to Heroku" button or similar. Or at least screenshots. I think it would be nice to see how the UI looks like.
