Since turning on blog comments for a July test-run, I’ve already gotten three spam comments; fortunately Askimet caught them. As part of this test, while I’ve not turned on webmentions (I’m still mulling), I have turned on ActivityPub support. If you’re on Mastodon or whatever, you can follow this blog using @bix@bix.blog and replies from you there will be comments here. I’m not fond of any of the @-name formatting used by ActivityPub and webmention-style comments, so it’s very likely that I will be either hiding @-mentions via CSS or simply by manually editing comments as they come in and get approved. I am not entirely sure what that might or might not do to how reply comments from here appear via ActivityPub, presuming they even do?
