I’ve promised enough people this, so I had to do it! 😁
Here’s my write-up of how I added client-side Fediverse-powered comments to my Jekyll blog using the Mastodon API.
Huge props to @jwildeboer for the initial inspiration, as well as @julian and everyone who provided feedback for inspiring the design improvements.

in reply to Cassidy James :eos: :gg: :fh: • • •Well this thread went absolutely nuts. Thanks to everyone who tested things out! I’ll have to write an update or a follow-up post, but after a way-too-late-night hacking session, my implementation now supports:
• Better configuration options
• More reusable OP/verified badging
• Link cards
• Spoilers/content warnings
