YouTube had this same issue for years to the point where various creators had scripts they would run constantly to clean the spam out of their video comments using very simple filters. It's amazing the apathy that big tech companies have to this sort of problem. Wonder why HN doesn't have the same spam problem? Because Dang actually cares about the site's content quality and not about quarterly user growth :)
