Isn't it a difference if a discussion happens at some external place or if it 
happens in some KDE place? People might rather expect the original post author 
around in a KDE one, no?

Perhaps it could be only done for blog posts where authors/people opt-in to 
use discuss.kde.org for follow-up discussions. E.g. IIRC Kate blog posts have 
had decided to use kreddit as the central discussion/commenting place. And 
might consider perhaps to switch to discuss.kde.org instead (though will 
people follow? yet another account needed? yet another UI, yet another set of 
user names?)

And there are discussions, and there are value-adding comments.

IMHO social-clubbing discussions are fine to have elsewhere, but if people 
point out mistakes or have additional information, please let's not invite 
them to other seemingly KDE-officially places when the original blog post 
allows comments. So just because things are bad already, let's not make it 
worse for more people.
