You bet.

Discoverability is high on our list of things to improve.

When you use the claim flow you'll be able to link your Disqus account with your existing Kinja account, which will be free from the grays.

No, but we'll make sure redirects are created so your current subscriptions don't stop working.

There's no connection between blog posts and comments. But you can link to your blog post in your comments and link to your comments in your blog posts, so that's nice? Also, you'll have a profile page where you can see all your blog posts and comments.

Hey cigarette, I just want to say I really like your comments.

Remind me never to use tongue in cheek humor in an AVC discussion.

Submit plenty of feedback to us. Let us know how you'd like us to change Kinja's discussions. Believe it or not, we're listening.
