Thanks for the information, it was not obvious my self hosted Discourse site was not protected against spam. I assumed wrongly it was. OMO this info should be more prominently put forward for would be Discourse admins envisaging self hosting heir site.

I will look for that Discourse AI functionality, which I never considered before due to budget restrictions.

I try here to list the actions for an admin on a self hosted site like me, can you tell me if I am right?

  1. First I should install the Discourse AI plugin? Discourse AI

  2. Second, I should setup a LLM like explained here? Discourse AI - Large Language Model (LLM) settings page

  3. Then I should setup a spam detection mechanism like explained here? Discourse AI - Spam detection
