I'm a Developer Relations Manager at Asurion with over 7+ years of development and industry experience. Love just creating stuff and putting it out there!
This was great info to know! I have been noting spam comments on my personal articles and I couldn't understand the motive behind them as they seemed very obviously spam.
I will make sure to be more proactive in reporting and hope to help in whatever capacity I can!
Really enjoy being a part of this community and will do my best to keep bad actors out!
I'm a friendly, non-dev, cisgender guy from NC who enjoys playing music/making noise, hiking, eating veggies, and hanging out with my best friend/wife + our 3 kitties + 1 greyhound.
I'm really glad ya found the info here helpful, Bradston!
I do think it's important for us to know the motivation so we can better fight against it. Understanding that it's a game of backlinking for SEO purposes really helped us to combat that particular goal of spammers — i.e. if we can make their links useless to them, then they won't gain anything from coming here, thus hopefully they'll stop coming here. 🤞
Anywho, I so appreciate your message and willingness to help keep the spammers out. Don't hesitate to report spammers as ya see'em and we'll do our best to take'em out quickly as we can! 🙌
