I've worked really hard for a few years trying to push out quality info created by our community, building an archive to share with everyone. Now it seems it's all behind a pay-wall for profiteering. Information shouldn't be accessible via a subscription for profit. I'm deeply saddened by this.

How Embarrassing!
Sorry to be blunt, J, but I think you are seeing something that in fact lies in your own heart.
For some reason, you seem to be incapable of seeing the good reasons why people might do this. Instead, you see people who want money, selling merch, subscriptions in order to....line their pockets?
So 'thought leaders' who spend 8, 10, 12 hours a day working hard, sacrificing their time and sweat to research, collate, write, produce, etc, should be doing it for free, because they are all ..... millionaires?
Projection, J. Projection.
If you are on substack, you can certainly allows subscriptions that cost nothing. If you are in a position, why not make that choice? But I think the corruption you see in others may in fact be the corruption you fear in your own heart. Sorry to be blunt, but I don't know what else to say.
If you REALLY want to see corruption, here, look at this website (posted by penisse). THAT's the real corruption in our movement. Clickbait, fear porn, grifting scams.

Real researches who work hard at what they do deserve and often need to be supported so that they can actually do what they do. If you are wealthy enough and blessed enough that this is not the case for you, you should count your blessings, instead of seeing evil in others because they are not so blessed.....
That's my $0.02.
best of luck to you.
