I've already bought a year's Premium membership. What I'm concerned about is spending a lot of time building communities here only to have them deleted instantly without warning or recourse based on some admin's whim (which DW's TOS currently allows them to do). This has happened to many communities on Facebook, Reddit, Youtube, Tumblr, etc. If DW has already turned into a censor-fest, then I don't want to bother with building any communities, and I'll use it just for my own personal blogging.
What I've seen of denise's posts suggests that she has a strong commitment to free speech, but if she retires, or steps back from operations (as I understand it, her health isn't so great), I not confident that the future stewards will be so committed.

Thanks for the feedback, it's good to hear.
