@davidrevoy It's a bit tough as none of the alternatives are as "directly connected" to the work as comments are, but at the same time... It's not like people can't connect with you if they want to.

I made a piddly little blog "system" a couple years back and I didn't even bother with comments, I just put a little colophon after each post that said "email me" hehe.

Kudos to you for making it this long, and with a much more popular blog than I've ever had to moderate 😊
