   Mozilla launches paid subscriptions to its Developer Network TechCrunch
   https://nu.federati.net/url/285487
   
   >Mozilla today launched MDN Plus, a paid subscription product on top of the existing (and recently re-designed) Mozilla Developer Network (MDN), one of the web’s most popular destinations for finding documentation and code samples related to web technologies like CSS, HTML and JavaScript.
   >
   >The new subscription offering will introduce features like notifications, collections (think lists of articles you want to save) and MDN offline for when you want to access MDN when you’re not online.
   >
   >There will be three subscription tiers: MDN core, a free limited version of the paid plans; MDN Plus 5, with access to notifications, collections and MDN offline for $5 per month or $50 per year; and MDN Supporter 10 for those who are willing to pay a bit more to support the platform in addition to getting a direct feedback channel to the MDN team (as well as “pride and joy,” Mozila says). As the name implies, that more expensive plan will cost $10 a month or $100 for an annual subscription.

      @geniusmusing Hopefully, that will help keep MDN online.
      
      Now maybe they can do a paid version of Firefox that defaults to all sorts of ad blocking, tracking blocking, script blocking and *no data collection or studies*.
