Description

Initially posted on https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/issues/33552, but I was advised to post here by @jeherve.
Currently, the Jetpack app doesn't support the comment feature unless the Jetpack Comments is enabled. Personally, I don’t really like how we are (kind of) forced to activate Jetpack Comments in order to let people comment using the Jetpack app. I still want to use the default WordPress comment form on my desktop/mobile website, because I have no control over CSS used for Jetpack Comments (because CSS are within iframe). Thank you for your kind consideration.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

In Jetpack app, you see comments disabled (closed) by default if you haven't opted in to use "Jetpack Comments".

Tested on [device], iOS [version], Jetpack iOS / WordPress iOS [version]

iPhone 13, iOS version 16.6.1, Jetpack iOS version 23.2.2
