The hyperactive filter was a good idea, in my opinion. Not being able to comment for a while sucks, but it was very, very bad on comments. You will still see at some places how developers needed to take matters into their own hands, because they got spam comments hourly, promising updates and whatnot. Whit constantly evolving tactics, like links to patreon, github, images with links and even fake Itch projects.
Only if they cannot get payday, the scammers might consider stopping.
The problem with the false positives arise, because it takes too long to clear them. A few days should be tolerable for everyone to have spam free comment sections. But many people waited longer than a month.
I hope the fine tuning of the filters is better and faster than the spam.
