Glenn and Nikita, I find it very disappointing that only paying subscribers will be allowed to comment on this Substack. I can't afford to pay for a subscription, but I have never been trolling here and I genuinely enjoyed the discussions. If the goal is to prevent trolling, you can simply ban certain accounts.

By limiting the discussion to paying subcribers you are going to impoverish it, not enrich it. And as Richard Bicker has pointed out, many of the people who have enthusiastically supported your decision are not active commentators on this Substack.
