Comments, in my opinion, add nothing to a site. Most of the time they're just noise. Often, they're a distraction.

There's the occasional lucid, intelligent comment that truly elevates a post or inspires someone, but they are by far the rarity.

On the other hand, I'm speaking of comments on larger sites, not small blogs.

I have no interest in allowing comments on my personal blog. If people want to engage me, they will do so directly.

You're not talking about small blogs, but, if we talk about them.. there are some blogs like https://scottaaronson.com/blog/ for which the comment section can be often more interesting than the blog itself
