I wonder how well HN would do if it were pay-walled? I'm guessing not very well. Then asking people who are here because it's free to pay for linked content is wrong? Hence, I can understand the sentiment behind blocking the nyt content, but not sure I'm 100% behind it, just like I'm not behind making HN for a fee.

- fourside 3y agoThat’s an apple to oranges comparison. HN is an online community where most of the value comes from content generated by users (votes, comments, submissions) and the moderation by folks like dang. NY times gets most of its value from the content that its employees create.
