NPR Website to Get Rid of Comments
95% of internet comments are pure trash and basically internet pollution. The other 5% can be a mixture of deep insight, thoughtful discussion, and relevant opinion. Sorting out the trash and insisting on quality comments is an unsolved problem, perhaps with an eventual tech solution.<p>The New York Times is probably the only site I know of that does comments well, and they are obviously heavily moderated. But, they&#x27;re smart, sometimes funny, often insightful, and generally worthwhile to read.<p>Some general forums and social sites do comments reasonably well too, this one included. But Reddit is a toilet, and Facebook and Twitter are the dirtiest of cess pools.
