Hi there. This little post is just a heads about an issue that I am
|
|
|
|
|
facing with the comment system that I run. Unfortunately, you will not
|
|
|
|
|
be able to post comments on the blog until, at least, next Wednesday
|
|
|
|
|
(November 21).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For those of you wondering which comment system I use, it is called
|
|
|
|
|
[Juvia](https://github.com/phusion/juvia). Due to privacy concerns, I
|
|
|
|
|
chose not to use anything like [Disqus](http://disqus.com/) because it
|
|
|
|
|
tracks you and your comments (read their privacy policy if you want more
|
|
|
|
|
details). On the other hand, Juvia runs on my private personal server,
|
|
|
|
|
and does not collect any kind of personal information when you make a
|
|
|
|
|
comment. The cons of this approach is that when my personal server is
|
|
|
|
|
down (like now), the blog doesn't have comments. But that's a minor
|
|
|
|
|
price to pay for the respect of privacy, I think.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Anyway, I hope to have the comments back online next week. Until there,
|
|
|
|
|
I plan to continue making posts here, so save your comments for some
|
|
|
|
|
time!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks!
