Looks like DPR are going to go subscription in some shape or form.
At the moment looks like they are testing reader reaction.
If this forum can resolve certain problems, looks like it might be an opportunity to make this place a bit more lively.

I responded to the survey and put NO to everything I could.

If their subscription includes articles or topics, not accessible for free users, then I would not subscribe.
If they will have same content for paid users and other people, then I would not subscribe.
If they start to nag me because using adblocker (and I could not utrn that off), then I would not visit them anymore.
TL;DR - I don't care and I don't subscribe.
Generally I don't subscribe to information sources or communication platforms (forums). I could subscribe to some really interesting service or collaboration platform, like shared genealogy research.
This forum needs users to make it more lively.
New users can come in - admins need to go and approve them at the moment.

Nowadays there is no easy way to attract new users for any forum - young people usually live in social media and older people are conservative (or just lazy) enough to not search for any new forums to participate. You (we) have to actively invite people here and even this does not work so easily, habits are hard to change.
