Today, I've decided to give up on my blog's commenting system.

I've been blogging for almost 20 years. I have received 13,007 comments on 978 of my posts. So why am I stopping now?

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org That is sad.

I did have a blog that I eventually killed for a lot of reasons. It did have a commenting system on it, but I was never very popular, and I was able to keep the idiots at bay.

I've been writing on Medium and substack... and my presences is growing in the fediverse. I now have a Firefish instance, from which I post my thoughts into the fediverse. I've been thinking of opening up registrations, but I'm almost certainly going to require payment, to turn away the jackasses that would like to ruin everybody's experience.

It sucks when people can't behave.

@yourautisticlife Thank you and yes.

Off topic: but do you know where I could read why FireFish split from Misskey? I couldn't find a lot of info about it. ( nothing en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefish , or en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misskey )

@davidrevoy @yourautisticlife All I know is FireFish is a renamed CalcKey. I know basically nothing about it other than that it exists and uses ActivityPub, so I couldn't tell you why it split from Misskey or why it changed its name. The official site doesn't shed any light either. Chris Trottier/Atomic Poet would know; I've seen him posting about it. But if he's publicly given the specific reasons, I either didn't see it (likely, as I don't follow him) or forgot (likely...I don't remember why).

@linebyline Thank you. I'm interested to know if it the project has a interesting ethic and values, and if they need a mascot 😺

@yourautisticlife

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @linebyline@bytetower.social linebyline gave you the lowdown. Firefish is Calckey under a new name. Building it is not for the faint of heart. I used the Ubuntu script... which alas does not run as-is in a Debian system. The script won't tell you where the problems are.
