Wow looks really nice. Was looking for something like it or maybe build it my self but then with the matrix protocol and profiles. But still need to dig in to it, don't know if it would be possible with matrix.

Any thoughts about how to maybe integrate blog comments software like Talkyard (or any of the others) with Matrix?

I'm going to build Mattermost and Slack integrations — primarily to send notifications to chat channels, when something happens at Talkyard.

Maybe there could be a notification to a Matrix channel, once a new blog post reply appears. And in the distant future, maybe it'd make sense to moderate comments, and reply, via /slash commands in a Matrix client?

If actually storing blog comments — maybe even the blog post itself?, in Matrix somehow, then, I'm thinking it'd be good if the Matrix protocol & storage format, worked with relpies & nested replies. So there could be HackerNews like tree-style discussions

I wonder if it supports that already maybe

B.t.w. if you find time to dig into that, and if you want to & remember, feel free to message me once you know how you'd do, to build something based on Matrix,

I'd be interested in ... in the very distant future ... two-way-sync between a Matrix "database" and a Talkyard database

I've set the reply to you on Talkyard
