We recently upgraded our comment system to improve reliability, performance, and long-term control, and we’re currently running both systems during the transition.

We understand there have been frustrations and increased feedback, and we’re actively working to improve things. What we ask is simple: use the system and give it a fair shot.

Repeated complaints without details don’t help us solve problems—we appreciate your patience as we continue refining the experience.
