Probably going to get down-voted to hell for this, but you all ever think of supporting those whom you are reading double digit number of articles a month from with a subscription? They aren't terribly expensive. Decent news sources are dying off and being replaced with junk.
- whamlastxmas 10y agoNo, because the information in articles is usually available in literally hundreds of other places with nearly identical content. That someone on Hacker News submitted a paywalled article is not a reason to support them, it's more an argument to provide a different source. WaPo is just as much "junk" as many other sites, depending on your perspective.
- gortok 10y agoNo. The price for a digital subscription for the WaPo is too high to justify paying for it; especially when I don't read the site every day; I only read it whenever it's linked to from Twitter or Hacker News. I'd gladly support ads for WaPo, but I'm not going to pay for something that isn't crucial to my day; and WaPo is not crucial to my day.
