Can anyone recommend an alternative commenting plugin to Squarespace comments or Disqus? Squarespace support told me those were my only two options but I read that because I'm paying for their business plan I can integrate other commenting systems using custom code. Is this accurate and is there a better option?
A bug in the Squarespace Comments system prevents visitors from subscribing to blog threads on Safari and Chrome!!! And I'm finding that some people can't subscribe to Disqus because the "verification email" never comes through. I can't risk people being frustrated by that and leaving my site without commenting. I find Disqus' whole verification is a pain and I'd like to turn it off since I'm moderating all the comments anyway but Disqus won't let me. I generally find Disqus not streamlined enough but they give me very few options for control at the $9.99/month level and no support.
Is there a simpler, better alternative to Disqus?
Here's an example of one of my discussion forums (currently using Disqus but want to change that) https://www.experiential-psychotherapies.com/coherence-therapy-discuss/join-coherence-therapy-forum
