ONIONS: I do not like it. Google SSO is soooooooo last year! On a real note, I hate logging in to services with Google.
I do not know what data the service gets. I also would not like my real name, along with possibly picture(in case of personal google accounts) to be tied to comments. I understand why AndrewPH chose this specific service, and there's nothing wrong with it but out of personal preference, I will not comment using it.

understandable. login-with-classic would be based and register pilled.

I wanted a comment system where folks could just specify a nickname and a comment (and optionally an email address), but all the comment systems I tried that were well-integrated with my CMS were clunky, shitty, bad, and other adjectives. The biggest complaint I have is that none of them allowed you to just specify a nickname w/o anything else, you had to comment anonymously or register on the site.

Maybe it would be better to make the blog add threads here and link to here for comments / embed a preview. Kind of like what Garry/Facepunch used to do with their blogs, where it would link you to a thread powered by some other, more capable, batteries-included software.

Pretty sure MacRumors and Tom's Hardware both do that, and I love the fact that i can just dive in to the comments by going to it's forum thread. Doesn't sound hard to do the posting part either. The harder part would be embedding comments from here over on the blog post.
