"Discussions are moving to Substack as part of an ad-free Boing Boing! The BBS will transition to read-only on Friday, Nov 1."
I mean yes, going ad-free, great move. I endorse that part 100%. Ads have been obsolete since the web went mainstream, which is why the reputation laundering industry has resorted to ever more extreme surveillance and manipulation tactics to stay alive.
But moving discussions from a self-hosted Discourse to SubStack? #FacePalm
I guess I should make a quick post. I support West Bromwich Albion.
And Ukraine from the UK.

#boingboing says "disable your adblocker or pay"
I say, well damn, too bad there are no other websites ever....
#boingboing is now only accessible via paywall or disabling adblocker. That's disappointing, I liked browsing boing boing but I'm not keen on either option.
Given their target audience I can't see this being a popular change.
@pluralistic The irony of you dropping this piece on the same day that #BoingBoing paywalled their forum behind Substack is indescribable.
Sad to see enshittification come for Boing Boing as they close their BBS and move to substack. #BoingBoing #Enshittification
In a bit of #trivia for amusement. Video does have English subtitles.

This is a long shot, but maybe a decade or more ago, there was a post on boingboing about a mysterious band (european?) that released a series of music videos that coincided with a contest. The prize of that contest was to be a participant in a further series of videos. They showed the winner traveling with the band to a mysterious place in the wilderness where they were (mock?) sacrificed? Would anyone know about this?
I believe that we will win. #boingboing https://x.com/shilensays/sta…
