From the FAQ:
Are paywalls ok?
It's ok to post stories from sites with paywalls that have workarounds.
In comments, it's ok to ask how to read an article and to help other users do so. But please don't post complaints about paywalls. Those are off topic.

- melling 11y agoYou're right. However, it doesn't solve the noise problem. Oh well, guess the problem of a growing community and keeping the quality high is unsolvable
