I think it is best to disable comments through WP all together and only display the ones that get federated from Mastodon etc.

Even with some spam block addon for WP, spammers find a way and there is much more spam on WP than the Fediverse.

With akismet and cloudflare turnstile you can pretty much eliminate spam

Yeah, I agree. Something that I’m tinkering with right now involves removing the comment form found at the bottom of articles, and replacing it with instructions on how to federate with the conversation tree instead.
