Imagine it Mumsnet was subscription-based either on a monthly/annual basis or a one-time fee to gain access

How much would you be willing to pay?

Nothing. Though I’d miss The Archers thread.

MadellineBellPictureMeGoneNS · Today 06:04

No I'd be back to reading library books.

I wouldn’t pay either.
Some years ago I’d often find myself pleasantly surprised and entertained by the brilliance and wit of some posters; now, rarely.
So much of the wit and cleverness has been replaced by sneeriness.

Same. 12 years ago if have happily paid a few pounds.

But to be honest, this place has been so much poorer since Mumsnet HQ went full-on trans ideology bonkers from 2016 or so and banned so many feminist women who put women first.

Nowadays, there is so little depth to so many topics of discussion; it's really noticeable. And so much AI slop and engagement farming, with pointless performative posts. It's no longer worth paying for.

If there was no free version, I'd just leave.

Nothing id stop using it.

I would, but by the time currency conversion fees were involved it'd be too expensive.

My UK bank account was closed thanks to Brexit.

I wouldn’t

BadBones60 · Today 00:43

Zero

SnowFrogJelly · Today 00:38

Nothing

Judashascomeintosomemoney · Today 00:38

Zero. We’re the product. MN make money out of us, we don’t pay. And I’m fine with that.

Absolutely nothing .. it’s become very woke

Absolutely nothing - it's full of right-wing bullshit.

AppleDumplingWithCustard · Today 00:31

Absolutely nothing.

We’re the content not the consumer why would anyone pay for the privilege? Besides if MN charged they’d have to actually sort out their website to make it less shit to use.

Yes, exactly.

I wouldn't. There's already a premium option that I don't pay for. I've been here 20 years and I'd stop using it if I had to pay. Mumsnet already get their pound of flesh for selling the content produced here and advertising revenue.

100% agreed.

Scarlettpixie · Today 00:27

I wouldn’t pay. I would seek out free forum
based entertainment.

I’ve been on MN for 20 years. I wouldn't pay for a subscription.

I have too and wouldn't either.

Somewhereovertherainbowwewillmeetagain · Yesterday 23:20

I wouldn't pay anything for Mumsnet as there's far to much arguments, fake posts and false information. I would happily pay for a site which didn't allow any sort of my negative points.

What if there was no free alternative?

Bye.

JaneJeffer · Yesterday 22:45

I’ll see what you’re paying and half it @DasEnglischesWetter

Swissmeringue · Yesterday 22:44

£0, they can continue to harvest my data and sell advertising but I'm not giving them any cash

ThatLoudCat · Yesterday 22:44

Is this a thread started by Mumsnet to see how much they can squeeze out of us when they switch it to a paid site?

greenspaces03 · Yesterday 22:41

I would set up a free alternative that would be add free too! Not everything is money

Lindy2 · Yesterday 22:41

I wouldn't pay. I'd stop using it and would hopefully, find more time again to read books.

AvengingAngle · Yesterday 22:39

No, I avoid all subscriptions that fall into the entertainment category. I accept adverts as necessary to fund the site. I'd go somewhere else if MN became subscription only.
