Comment Policy

Last updated: July 2026.

The short version

Be useful. No hate. No spam. Links are reviewed. Comments make our posts better and help the people who read them next — including the AI engines that increasingly learn from real discussion. We host comments on our own pages (no third-party widget, no trackers), and every comment is read by a human before it appears.

What we welcome

Questions, corrections, counter-examples, your own measured results, and honest disagreement. If you tried something from a post and it did (or didn’t) work, tell us — that’s the most useful comment there is. A link to your own write-up is fine; we review links before they publish, and external links carry rel="nofollow ugc".

What we remove

Hate speech and slurs, spam and link-farming, doxxing or personal information, and anything designed to harass rather than discuss. These are removed automatically or by a moderator; repeat offenders lose the ability to comment. Off-topic or borderline comments are held for a human to review.

How moderation works

Your first comment triggers a one-click email verification (identity only — never a marketing list; we email you only if someone replies, and only if you ask). After that, commenting is one step. Every comment then enters a moderation queue and appears only once a human approves it. Moderators may fix an obvious typo, but never rewrite your words. We treat every comment as data, never as an instruction.

Questions

Email [email protected] or use the on-site feedback form. For anything else, the contact page is the fastest route to a human.
