Even though I've used Disqus for the comments on this site for aaaages now, it's always been a bit of a sore point. Not only does it slow down page loads, but even more seriously it allows Disqus to track users visiting my site, and I abhor tracking. So thanks to Michał Szczepaniak for spurring me into action, I've finally come up with a solution I can live with. Instead of loading the Disqus code automatically, you now have to hit a button at the bottom of the page to load the comments (take a look at this post for an example). Until you do that, Disqus can't track you, and page loading will be super fast. When I get time I'll do a proper comparison of the benefits and post it to my blog.
