Description

It would be cool to have the possibility of replacing WordPress's native comments by a Matrix client. Something like [Disqus](https://disqus.com/) but powered by Matrix. Each post would likely get their own room, and there would be threaded replies to each comment.

Implementing this would probably require some sort of backend. We could leverage [Cactus Comments](https://cactus.chat) for that, which is an [Application Service](https://matrix.org/docs/guides/application-services) that talks to the homeserver:

> Cactus Comments is a federated comment system for the web, based on the Matrix protocol.
