Hmm I often see separate feed for comments on some sites (though I can't
find them now), which is quite annoying to me because these comments are
separated from the post.  I'm not sure if it's just my feed reader not
understanding this field, but I guess it's unlikely the case.

Why not just make a "Reply" link instead?  Is it intentional to be
unintuitive?

Re: deleting comments, I wonder how would you do that.  Do you have to
manually goes through the comments in mbox and delete it every time you
regenerate the comments?

Anyway, nice work, I think I might look into implementing something
similar at some point.

FYI this email sets Reply-To instead of In-Reply-To so it won't show up
on the site.  I've drafted the reply for this, could you please resend
the comment with the corrected header?

Yea not many readers support `wfw:commentRss`, which is the only semantic
way to deliver comments AFAICT, with WFW pepsi for quite a while.
It should not be difficult to add it to your favorite reader though
so it might be worth a shot discussing with its maintainers.

Thank you for the feedback, it was not a concious decision (-;

lists.sr.ht has moderation features so I'm using them.
If one uses a personal mail box, deleting or moving
inappropriate comments to a separate folder should do.

Thanks d-; I'm looking forward to seeing it!

Seconded, Firefox does not treat URIs indiscriminately and pretends
that `mailto` is only about the email address )-;  Try *setting*
the following script for `mailto` handling in Firefox:

    #!/bin/sh
    exec urxvt -e neomutt "$@"

FWIW, the workaround works:

neomut "mailto:..."

It is a bit annoying, though, because for some reason Firefox stripped
the parameters when I copy it.

Another way that works for neomutt is to use "edit header" (hot key: E).
