@alternativeto This was exactly my reaction to Boing Boing requiring that I turn off my ad blocker some month ago. Or pay a monthly subscription. Enshitification has been lurking in the background of the site with their questionable merch vendor. When I came back randomly some 6 month later, they'd removed the ad block ban and switched to a freemium model. But the artlcles were a lot crappier. Haven't gone back since. RIP.
