I see that there is a plugin available for subscriptions for Discourse forums. Why isn’t this capability being supported natively inside of the Hosted Discourse product? Not only do subscriptions give forum organizers a way to pay for costs, but it also creates an economic model for Discourse to do what Patreon is doing. Patreon has terrible discussion features, and to me, it makes zero sense to sign up for Patreon and try to integrate Discourse when Discourse is actually where I want people to spend 99% of their time.
