I stopped my membership after my employer stopped paying for it, a couple of years before I was laid off (I took that as an omen, and I was right).

Although now retired, I spent 23 years as a technical writer. I looked into
STC a couple of times, but never managed to find the value proposition
compelling. It is possible, perhap even likely, that I overlooked
something, but I am not much of a joiner anyway.

I just paid membership joining dues for one of my team a couple days ago,

If STC knew they were doing this, they should have suspended membership
applications a while ago, even if under the guise of "processing issues."

While I will miss STC, that last action leaves a very bad taste as their
parting gesture.
