The number of comments on articles on the site has seemed to drop somewhat drastically since the switch, hasn’t it? Thee are only 6 comments right now for this article that came out hours ago - with 3 pending. That seems ominous.

That’s not what I was saying. I was saying making a burner account and not linking it is the simplest thing to do to avoid entering personal info, and doesn’t make a huge difference, given that a lot of legacy comments, etc., don’t appear to be easily retrieved from Kinja anyway.
