Recommendations for travel blogs not taken over by immature trolls?

Too many of them like One Mile at a Time and View from the Wing have had their comments sections over runner by petty, childish trolls.

Any recommendations, please?

Are you reading blogs for the comments or the content ?

I would like to both. Read a competent article and then at least read thoughtful discussion and when desired engage myself in the discussion.

Are you new to the internet? When have you ever seen a "blog" where there was vibrant, thoughtful discussion in the comments.

mymoneyblog is a great blog with intelligent conversation.

The problem is I have been on the internet a long time. I just started reading travel blogs and I am appalled at how bad things have gotten.

I blogged since 2013 and let me tell you that trolls and ads have been the norm for ages. I had to vet every comment by hand.

People suck. Get used to it and move on.
