I understand the rationale behind avoiding captcha to keep the user experience simple. Even if we don’t prevent spam accounts at the account creation step, could there be a way to prevent spamming in comments? And what would be the best way to handle this? Having faced this issue, what would be helpful is if we could delete such comments or report spam.

Note: The spam comments on my post got removed from time to time.
