In my blog, comments are not supported, and it would be easy to add if I developed my own blog with Django. But I feel that this single feature does not overweight the simplicity and velocity I have with such setup.

If you really need comments in your blog when using Hugo, you can still integrate them with Disqus https://gohugo.io/content-management/comments/

In regards to the requirement to know Git: It is just necessary in the setup phase, the blog posts creation and edition are controlled through Netlify CMS for me.
