Found out via the Bugs and Support Forum that Domains of Delight, a sort of companion to Wild Beyond the Witchlight WotC released on DM's Guild at the time of WBtW's publication, is now available in the DDB marketplace, being sold as an Extra Life fundraiser (as I think the DM's Guild publication was). In addition to supporting/supplementing WBtW it does, in my own experience, have a lot of independent value for DMs wanting some tools to create their own Domains of Delight within the FeyWild (not a perfect analogy, but think of Domains of Delight to the Feywild as one would a Domain of Dread to the Shadowfell).
Any case, since DDB seems to be stealthing this out rather than making an announcement on the main page or even in the defunct News and Announcements subforum, I figured I'd put the word here. Maybe we'll see the Minsc and Boo Journal of Villainy, another WotC DMsGuild product put out around the same time as Domains of Delight) soon too?
This is also cool because Yarnspinner is probably one of the coolest NPC/monsters/personalities I've come across in WotC released D&D IMHO.
If you're not willing or able to to discuss in good faith, then don't be surprised if I don't respond, there are better things in life for me to do than humour you. This signature is that response.
Without having played TWBtWL, but having read the supplement, I would say it seems quite useful for any Fae campaign. A substantial portion of the book, for example, provides a lot of lore on Fae contracts, how folks might accidentally end up in them, and convoluted ways to break them. Fun stuff like that could be easily inserted into any campaign - and certainly one specifically focused on Fae.
All told, delightful little supplement and well worth the low cost (especially since the proceeds go to charity).
I really hope we start to see the Plane Shift content come to dndbeyond as well now that there's no ownership barriers anymore. Those races and subclasses would be great to have as non-core compendium content.
I know it's even more far fetched, but Minsc and Boo's Guide to Things and Stuff would be great to see here as well for the non-core compendium content.
So Domains of Delight occupies a very different space in relationship to 5e than Planeshift content. Planeshift stuff is affixed with a "this is unofficial content, DM beware" sort of admonition and no one pretends it went through a full product design cycle. Domains of Delight was written as official 5e supplemental material, readers are actually directed to check it out if interested in WBtWL. There's another WotC work Minsc and Boo's Journal of Villainy which I could see making it's route to DDB next. As for the Guide to Things and Stuff, extra-life supporting Adventurer's League content has wound up here before, so you never know.

I've wanted to purchase that minsc and Boo book, but as a technical writer, I just can't get past all the typos in the book. If they spent an hour cleaning it up, I'd gladly pay the price. There's just no reason those issues can't be fixed.

That's fair, I bought the PDF under the impression that I'd get an updated version once it's cleaned up (I think that's how Drive Thru and DM's Guild work), but did not buy the hardcopy because of the proofreading failures (though honestly, and admitting I haven't read it cover to cover, nothing too problematic has stood out to me). I'd say maybe porting it to DDB might give it another proofreading pass, but as I understand DDB isn't generally the place where copy editing or proofreading is done to existing text.

I just bought the book, but they’re saying it’s unavailable now. Am I waiting on something, or was it still able to be purchased after the content was locked, or something?

How useful is it for TWBtWL?
