Also, consider paying 404media the $100 for a year. It's just 4 people and I don't think they have many people actually paying. They're doing really good work. I paid. They also have a podcast - basically the top stories they publish in a conversational format: https://www.404media.co/the-404-media-podcast/ https://www.404media.co/the-404-media-podcast/

  $100/year is too much for an article on their complaints about Facebook.

    Believe it or not, $100 provides a wealth of journalism for the year, not just the single article!

  It's interesting that they offer advertising, but all of their content is behind paywalls.

    They didn't in the beginning. I think they realized that it wasn't sustainable with not enough people paying (pure speculation).

    It's not a paywall, just a sign-in wall. They were having trouble with getting scraped. The email sign-in is enough of a barrier to stop most scrapers. https://www.404media.co/why-404-media-needs-your-email-address/ https://www.404media.co/why-404-media-needs-your-email-addre...
