It would be great if readers could reply to posts via email straight from the post’s webpage on Ghost blogs/publications. See the implementation by other blogging platforms like Pika and Pagecord on how they work. They auto-populate the subject with the post title too!
Ghost does have comments but this could complement it by allowing readers to say something they wouldn’t necessarily publicly.
From the Pika example, this might be a theme change rather than a Ghost change.
Using their post as an example, here’s how you could adapt it to your Ghost theme:

Thank you. But this would only solve it for me, not benefit everyone. Moreover, I don’t even know how exactly I would edit the theme I use without fear of potential breakage or unintended consequences. And what if I want to change the theme?
I understand from some in the community that in Ghost, themes control most frontend things. In that case, maybe my request is for the official Ghost themes then? Not sure but my point is from the perspective of a user of Pika or Pagecord, it just works without people having to do anything but enter their reply to email.
