Whatever the reasons why this had to be, it feels like a death. Because it is one. The community which exists here cannot exist on Substack for any number of technical and logistical reasons, even if large numbers of people didn’t have issues with it in its own right, which they do. Many people won’t go there. Many others can’t. When this BBS goes...

I’m staying here, reading the blog and BBS, till the end. This is not the first online community that I’ve stayed with until they were busy unplugging the hardware and turning out the lights. It also will not be the last. I’m happy to pay if the new community is sufficiently similar in size, activity, and diversity, but that is not proven yet. Also...
