I’ve been using https://utteranc.es/, same concept but using Github issues as comment. This is interesting, especially if there’s a way to handle each user’s instances.
For what it’s worth: I self-host gitea, and it gives me the possibility to import not only repos but also issues, projects, etc from GitHub, gitlab, bit bucket, and a handful of others.
I don’t know if Utterances can work with gitea’s API. If it does, then in theory you should be able to migrate to gitea from GitHub for this use case.

Just looking at the Utterances site, this sticks out:
…so you can just migrate those comments somewhere else if you don’t want to use Github anymore? If not, I’d call that textbook lock-in.

I was genuinely wondering if it was that portable. Thanks for the info!
