  "pick": false,
  "what": "Roughly 5 KB embeddable comment widget positioned as a privacy-friendly Disqus alternative. Readers comment without signing in and it sets no cookies whatsoever. Submissions land in a moderation queue you approve by email or from the dashboard. Self-hostable via Docker or a one-click Railway deploy; current version is 1.4.0.",
  "why": "The cheapest real comment system that works for a non-technical audience — $12 a year hosted, or free on a box you already run. No login wall means casual readers actually leave comments instead of bouncing.",
  "warn": "Development is slow and the maintainer has publicly offered to sell the project, so treat it as low-activity software you may end up maintaining. No-login commenting plus a thin anti-spam story means you personally moderate every single thread.",
  "install": "Self-host with Docker or Railway, or paste the widget script from cusdis.com",
