Disqus is a comment system for blogs. It is free and easy to install. Unfortunately Disqus is not privacy friendly and loads ALOT of extra cookies and tracking code.
Disqus comments can be enabled on blog posts by adding your disqus shortname to the _data/site.yml

disqus:
shortname: "zerostatic" # Your disqus shortcode for example "zerostatic". leave this blank ie "" to disable.
Commento is a relatively new comment service. It is a paid service but reports to be privacy friendly.
Commento comments can be enabled on blog posts by adding enabled commento in the _data/site.yml.
