planet forwarding to discuss?

[Julius Künzel]

As it is related I just want to make you all aware of the possibility to integrate Discuss with your website as a comment system: https://meta.discourse.org/t/embed-discourse-comments-on-another-website-via-javascript/31963

This will at least avoid the problem of split discussion between discuss and your website.

We recently switched the comment system of kdenlive.org from Wordpress comments to discuss.kde.org based comments, you can see this in action at https://kdenlive.org/en/2023/06/kdenlive-23-04-2-released/

Cheers,
Julius
