About Disgus

Disgus is an embeddable commenting system for blogs and websites that stores comment threads as Nostr events. Site owners add a element or script tag configured with a Nostr pubkey and relays, with styles bundled inline and no separate CSS file.

Visitors can log in with an NIP-07 browser extension or post as a guest by typing a name. The first response creates a root Nostr event for the page, and replies can appear in other Nostr clients when the same relays are used. Use requires a Nostr pubkey, a relay, and an NIP-07 plug-in for login.
