    I personally flag any paywall links, I recommend you do the same.

      Why? They're completely allowed on the site. Dang has said this many times
      • baby 3y ago
        Because I do not want to see them on the site, and as a user that is my way of signaling this

    Why are we spamming the landing page of paywalled sources? We should completely avoid posting them here, to preserve their bandwidth and our sanity.

    If you see a comment complaining about a paywall, it's usually a request for someone to archive it for everyone's benefit, and it's usually a request that gets fulfilled.

      Yes exactly its kind of implied, and not trying to be rude.. it would help if the person posting the paywalled link also posts an archive link of course!
