Imposing paid plans on pre-existing Loomio.org groups

DS Danyl Strype Public Seen by 122

I recently noticed that some groups that were set up on Loomio.org when it was a pay-what-you-can operation have had their ability to create new threads removed, until they sign up for a paid plan. This is not cool. It's the way VC-funded startups behave, not social enterprises run as workers coops. I've raised the issue on the Loomio Community group, asking the Loomio team to restore the functionality of these legacy groups:

I'd appreciate your thoughts, in this thread, or there.

There was a comment to that effect in the thread I linked in the OP: https://www.loomio.org/d/hWZD4Ewb/please-restore-posting-functionality-on-groups-created-before-compulsory-subscriptions

You'd be amazed how many people read it as *Daryl* with an 'r' ;)
