The Guardian talks about their experience here:

It's interesting inasmuch as the Guardian is trying to be reader-supported without a paywall. You can be a "supporter" for €50 per year which, if I think of it as buying a reporter a pint once a month, is basically nothing.
Of course, it's worth remembering that people on HN complain pretty loudly if a paywalled link is shared. Have we considered revisiting that policy given the vulnerabilities in primarily-advertiser-funded news sources?
