I’m still not sure why the email alias I created for blog comments on Micro.blog is attracting so much spam. It gets tagged as spam but still 😡
@sod, is there any way to mask the email ID to prevent it from scrapping by spam bots?

@pratik Thanks for the feature request. 🥰 There's an issue on GitHub now with my thoughts jotted down.
@sod Thanks. I imagined that would be the case. During my WP days, I recall using a “secure” contact form instead of the regular one. I’m not sure of the technicalities behind it but I suppose it would add barriers to people who actually want to write in.
@sod I'm fine with losing 1% of non-JS visitors to reduce spam by 99%.. I'll wait for the Cloudflare option!
@warner @pratik Hey! 👋 Just wanted to say that email obfuscation is implemented now.
