> Of course, increasing the quality is good, but the way WP-discourse currently works, there is a high price to be paid for this: people have to login to comment (or did I miss something again?) which means you probably lose a significant number of comments. Not from those who have an account, but from passers-by who couldn’t be bothered to create an account.

We value quality over quantity. You may have noticed [comment fields are undergoing a bit of turbulence](https://www.wired.com/2015/10/brief-history-of-the-demise-of-the-comments-timeline) these days. We are of the opinion that “drive-by comments” promote low quality discussion, therefore we are unlikely to ever have built-in support for that in our canonical products.

I don’t think combining Discourse comments with other comment solutions is a good idea. Either use Discourse or a different comments system altogether. If you prefer something forum-like, [Muut](https://muut.com/) is pretty good.
