With this volume of spam it's driving users away, and the countermeasure of increased Cloudflare control has quite the same effect. Closed registrations keep the experience pleasant for real users. There could be an invite system for potentially new users.

People can maintain their anonymity if Tor connections are allowed. I registered this account from behind Tor. But people have to register an account so it isn't completely anonymous anyway.

I don't know. Way I see it is any "solutions" are gonna be some degree of shit and are in a way feeding the troll since it's got a reaction.
