Yeah, we’re still having a bunch of debates about this with many indieweb friends, with webmentions (what I have) vs. comments vs. encouraging people to email you when they have something to say, to nurture private conversations. I think all 3 are pretty interesting takes tbh, although I’m definitely on the side of open comments and webmentions (even if it means a bit more moderation by hand, I’ll just disable comments on stuff that start getting targeted by dogpiling) 🙂
