Hey Product Hunt - I built EchoThread because the comment tools I tried all seemed to make me choose between privacy, page speed, and actual spam control. The problem that pushed this over the edge was AI-generated comment spam: fluent, vaguely on-topic replies that sail past keyword filters and turn moderation into busywork. EchoThread is a hosted, privacy-first Disqus alternative for blogs, docs sites, and small publishers. The core difference is Siftfy, our first-party ML filter that scores comments as they land. What is included: - Threaded comments, reactions, image uploads, link previews, and formatting - Passkey, Google, GitHub, or guest commenting - Moderation dashboard with built-in spam review - One-click import from Disqus or WordPress - Full JSON/CSV export so you are not locked in - About 37 KB gzipped, with no ads and no third-party tracking - Free-forever Hobby tier, no credit card I am especially looking for feedback from people who run blogs, docs sites, static sites, or WordPress sites with comment sections. What is the spam pattern that your current setup still misses?
