I (Hugo beginner) need advise! I look for a comment system with some type of backend to see/moderate all comments. A bit like Wordpress.

I’ve decided to go with isso since it is free and can be hosted locally. There is no central administration, you have to check the specific pages where someone has commented, but I’ve configured it to notify me via Telegram bot so I get a link to go directly to the comment.
