News Bluelight is turning 27!

Twenty-seven years ago, a small group of people decided that honest conversation about drugs would keep more people safe than silence would. That idea became Bluelight.org.

Since then, millions of people have come here looking for information, usually from someone who had been in the same spot. Some of you have been here for two decades. Some of you joined last week. All of you are the reason this place works.

One thing hasn't changed in 27 years: Bluelight is independent and run by volunteers. Our moderators, admins and board give their time for free. Nobody tells us what we can or can't say, which is why you can trust what you read here.

Independence has a cost, though. Hosting, security and software all have to be paid for, and we rely on this community to cover them.

So for our birthday, we're asking for one thing: if Bluelight has ever helped you or someone you care about, please consider a donation. Every amount helps, and every dollar goes into keeping Bluelight running.

Donate here

Whether or not you can donate... feel free to tell us in this thread how you found Bluelight and what it has meant to you. We'd love to read it.

Edit: We'd also really appreciate some good reviews on TrustPilot. Taking the time to do this will really help us!

Thank you for 27 years.

RIP to all of the friends I've made, loved and lost. I hope bluelight is able to thrive into the future and continue to provide to others what was so freely given to me; acceptance, friends, support and a few laughs and cries along the way.

 
Thank you for the love in this thread. It's a good corrective, as I woke up today to a 1-star review on Bluelight's Trustpilot - a disgruntled community member whom I have responded to publicly, but the review will still stand. Because we only have a small number of reviewers, this brings our score down a lot. Could some of your amazing love be translated into some genuine Trustpilot reviews?

gawd I read that one. I agree the ''moderator'' was in the wrong, but like you said, it takes 2 to tango 💃
 
Awesome anniversary and happy birthday! Luckily I survived 27 and I'm 100% confident bluelight will too. I've only been active here for a short time, but been lurking since 2018 atleast and I've come across some of the most interesting and fascinating people and experiences here, but also some of the most dark and disturbing aspects of humanity too.
Anyway I've gotta commend the people making sure this site is still up and going and share my appreciation of those who do this voluntary work.
