Since I can't be the only one looking for things to break, I'll ask: What if I complain about a paywall and provide a mirror at the same time?

- dang 11y agoThen I suppose your remark would be partly on and partly off topic.
- alkonaut 11y agoMirrors and workarounds should be in the post to begin with. No link (not just on HN, on the internet) should lead to paywalled content without clear indication. Providing a mirror or at least spelling out the best workarounds (Yes every.single.time) should be mandatory. Edit: I understand it could be controversial for HN to officially push links that pierce paywalls. But a tag users can avoid wasting time would be appropriate, just like a link to a discussion of common workarounds.
