Don't need to pay. Just use https://github.com/magnolia1234-new/bypass-paywalls-chrome-clean https://github.com/magnolia1234-new/bypass-paywalls-chrome-c... to bypass paywalls.
Was on HN back in March ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22482329 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22482329 )
- MattGaiser 6y agoUseful (and I am downloading) but then I am killing newspapers. I would happily pay $50 a month for news. The problem is that the news I read is spread all over the place so I really just spend $10 on the Economist.
- crankylinuxuser 6y agoMany of us are in the same boat. I would only read an article or 2 a month from any 1 source. But I'm expected a 1-size-fits-badly plan? But yet, why these bypass paywalls even work is because they discriminate on who gets free and who pays. This tool wouldn't work if everyone had to pay. And alas, rip score. Already at -2 in 15 minutes. And I was sharing something that was no less shared on HN. Dang needs to do something about this damned -1 brigades with no comments. (And I know you couldn't downmod cause you responded.)
- MattGaiser 6y agoIt is probably the "Don't need to pay" part which is making people react viscerally.
- jrnichols 6y agoAlso same boat. I read a LOT of sources. Big reason I pay the $10/mo for Apple News+ ... but i am also frustrated seeing that even in that garden, the other sources still want more money and want their own dedicated subscriptions. That isn't how News+ is supposed to work. I can't afford 17 different $16/mo subscriptions. (example price is actually my local newspapers fee)
