There's no point to posting Dilbert any more.
Those who are paying will see it anyway.
The Rest of Us don't care anymore.

The same could be said of Heinlein.
Or any number of things.

I think you are missing the point.
The point is not that only those willing to pay will be interested,
and they will have seen it already.
The point is that posting it /here/ is pointless because anyone who
isn't paying won't be able to see it and so not be interested.

It was amusing when it presented life in IT, through a glass, darkly,
but it hasn't done that for a long time.
I suspect most of us who followed it into this century due to habit will
just drop off.
I had a look at the new thing, and it came across as a place where,
"those people who point out we are arseholes can't find us", and left.
All things must pass. Sometimes much later than they really should've...

I find it a pity that Dilbert is now behind a paywall. This will
make many meetings more boring.

Posting it here was ALWAYS pointless.
None of us are ignorant of the existence of webcomics and Lynn didn't
just post notable comics...

Also anyone here won't be able to read Heinlein without buying a book

Long ago, Doonesbury had fantastic elements. Specifically, plants
could talk. BJ Eddy being fired from his position as head tulip
made the news.
https://www.gocomics.com/doonesbury/1976/11/30
It is possible that this is less a revelation about plant intelligence
and more that Zonker is a giant pot-head subject to hallucinations but
I think either Mike or Mark also heard them.
(OBSF: plants feeling turns up as a plot point in a David Drake
story)
