Thanks for the Fauna link. Looks interesting, I started thinking about using it for some "backoffice" related things. Probably will wait a year or more though, to find out how Fauna evolves — 3 months ago: "$27M [funding] and New Leadership".

About using it for a commenting system: What comes to my mind, is that outgoing bandwidth is a little bit expensive: 0.1$ per GB. So, maybe Fauna is a good idea for one's own personal commenting system — and, not such a good idea for someone who builds a SaaS commenting system and wants to keep the costs down.

Maybe something like the below? But not for Gatsby, instead, for the framework you use? (What frameworks do you use / like, if I may ask?)

    import TalkyardCommentsIframe from '@debiki/gatsby-plugin-talkyard';

    // And where the comments shall appear:
    <TalkyardCommentsIframe />
https://www.gatsbyjs.com/plugins/@debiki/gatsby-plugin-talky...

> a more full commenting example on top of Fauna [...] I guess I'll eventually need to do that

Be warned, it's more work than what it seems to be :- ) at least more than what I thought it'd be
