Lately, we created a blog post on how to add comments to jekyll with Hyvor Talk. Check it out.

Here are some advantages of using Hyvor Talk.

  • You can completely customize the appearance of Hyvor Talk to blend with your blog.
  • Hyvor Talk offers a generous free plan.
  • It does not place ads nor affiliate links on your website.
  • It supports guest commenting
  • And more…

There is no particular recommended way. https://staticman.net is a good solution. Repo: https://github.com/eduardoboucas/staticman

Hi @Pinocchio, I use Disqus for a client site built on the Barber theme. We love it.

Just bumped into this one, JustComments, on DEV.to.

I know this is an old question but it still pops up on Google when looking for a Jekyll comment section.

People coming here in the future might want to have a look at Commentix. It’s a simple, lightweight comment system. You can add a comment section to your Jekyll site with just two lines of code. The design can be customized to your needs using CSS variables.
