# 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)
# 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)

# ↩️ @jgmac1106 @withknown It was a wicked 5 minute scroll to fnd bottom! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33nGfdFe3As ( twitter.com/_/status/1187027762135085057)
# ↩️ 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)

# 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)
