@cogdog Just found out an abandoned @withknown site has accumulated like 1000 spam link comments per post. Call me a spam farmer Meanwhile, my maintained blog gets like 2 comments every other fortnight. (twitter.com/_/status/1187010697634467840)
#
@jgmac1106 Yes any mothballed @withknown should turn off the native comments plugin. The spam won't display and webmentions will still work.. For active users do the same and rely on webmentions or use the Askimet plugin. (https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/1i35qf) (twitter.com/_/status/1187019677719040000)
#
jeremycherfas I've kept comments on and moderate the crap out of the spam, because the Akismet plugin doesn't actually do anything. And I sdo believe that the flood is slowing to a trickle.

mapkyca Toying with the idea of exposing the Known query functions over GraphQL. Might make it easier for people to build out some clients.
#
mapkyca Might have to be added to my long list of things to do in my Copious Amounts of Free Time
#
jeremycherfas Something is up with the Twitter plugin. I've been through all the hoops to create a new app at Twitter, including getting a dev account, which was a surprise, but the plugin button will not become live. Any suggestions?
#
@cogdog ↩️ @jgmac1106 @withknown Any database ways to dump the spam? (twitter.com/_/status/1187027143626244096)

@cogdog ↩️ @jgmac1106 @withknown It was a wicked 5 minute scroll to fnd bottom! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33nGfdFe3As (twitter.com/_/status/1187027762135085057)
#
mapkyca jeremycherfas: you sure you have the plugin switched on? Check the plugin directory name (should be capital T). Easiest way to install is to use composer
#
[jgmac1106] jeremycherfas my notes from doing this with sadik and it took a few tried to get his button, I will ping from home
#
@jgmac1106 ↩️ I know the pain, I have eleven @withknown instances I maintain (and that is just my personal stuff @goifnetwork another 12). Just log in, turn off native comments and that entire scroll will disappear. (https://quickthoughts.jgregorymcverry.com/s/18LlAN) (twitter.com/_/status/1187029824835067910)

#
jeremycherfas Thanks [jgmac1106] Your notes will be a huge help, I am sure.
#
[jgmac1106] ...I might fail....thought I did a clean install and update this morning but I am not on latest build. Saved my terminal logs

@Cambridgeport90 I am wondering whether or not it might not be a bad idea to pick up a book on #Wordpress. as well. Looks kuje U am keeping it as my main presence and then doing with some other #indieweb folks do. Putting #withknown on a subdomain. #indieweb (twitter.com/_/status/1187073707144925184)
