tsimonq2pleia2: what happens with comments on the Fridge?16:57
tsimonq2pleia2: does someone approve them?16:57
tsimonq2pleia2: or does that not happen?16:57
pleia2spam is so horrible that we kind of gave up16:59
pleia2jose clears them out every few months or so16:59
pleia2tempting to just turn them off altogether tbh17:00
pleia2even real comments are rarely about the announcement, usually support requests or complaints17:00
tsimonq2but if there's a post that has only three comments, two of which seem to be good, is it bad to approve them?17:00
tsimonq2we have the same on lubuntu.me and it's very manageable17:00
pleia2not bad, just inconsistent17:01
tsimonq2(that being said, fridge probably has more visitors)17:01
tsimonq2ok17:01
pleia2yeah, fridge has a ton of visitors,17:01
pleia2Pending (38,653)17:01
pleia2Approved (349) | Spam (6,662)17:01
pleia2it's been a while since we've gone through them x_x17:02
pleia2yeah, that's since June 201517:02
pleia2so we get about 40k comments/year17:03
joselemme go ahead and run akismet right now17:03
tsimonq2pleia2: it's like the mailman queue for ubuntu-us-wi17:03
tsimonq2pleia2: thousands of them :P17:03
pleia2tsimonq2: ouch, I haven't seen a mailing list with this much of a problem17:03
pleia2ubuntu-marketing is bad, but even that only had a few hundred17:03
pleia2never seen thousands, do you know why ubuntu-us-wi is so bad?17:04
tsimonq2because nobody has had access for years17:04
tsimonq2I got access a few months ago17:04
tsimonq21293 to be exact17:04
