Comments not available when referrer isn't set (429) #85

Hello, thank you for hosting this instance. When disabling the referrer header on firefox the comment API returns '429 Too Many Requests' Thanks.

Unfortunately this is to combat against bot abuse.

If you do not want to send the full referrer then at least send the domain. There are extensions like that.

I understand, thank you.
