When Comments Derail Content (And How to Fix It)

We’ve all seen it.

A solid post. Clear point. Helpful content.

Then the comments show up — and suddenly:

  • The topic changes

  • Arguments explode

  • Someone’s selling crypto

  • Someone’s offended by something imaginary

And now readers scroll past the post… straight into noise.

The fix isn’t disabling comments.
The fix is structure.

By separating:

  • Author commentary

  • Reader discussion

You give readers clarity before chaos.

AUTHOR'S COMMENT

An author comment box lets you:

  • Set expectations

  • Correct misinformation

  • Add updates without editing history

  • Keep authority without locking discussion

It’s not control for control’s sake.
It’s respect for the content.
