What about those EU anti-hate laws which punish the owner of the website instead, if comments are not filtered?
I'm asking of curiosity, when it started I disabled commenting on my web page

IANAL, etc. but this risk is usually exaggerated by people with a political agenda. EU legislation takes into account the size and purpose of websites. I have never heard of any small website being targeted by such legislation. Do your own due diligence, of course, and take care not to buy into internet hysteria and over-simplification.
If you are looking for proactive filtering, you could leverage the Bluesky moderation labeler, I'm not aware of one focused on EU requirements though. If you are looking for reactive filtering, you may create a small labeler just for you where you can flag just the troublesome posts and then you filter them before the comment page is rendered.
I think regardless of any laws I really wanted want to publish hate speech on my website that has my name on it.
