Willamette Week:

Starting Jan. 13, our comments section will be different from any other comments section in the world. We're partnering with a Portland startup called Civil, which has created Civil Comments, the first commenting platform specifically designed to improve the way people treat each other online

Oregon is known for being nice. In that way we're almost like the Canada of the United States. It makes sense that Oregon is where a product for nice comments was created.

Comments sections some of the most terrible places on the Internet. I don't have comments on my website on purpose. I never read the comments anywhere, but I might just start reading them on Willamette Week.
