- tomhow 2mo agoPlease don't post snarky comments like this on HN. We've wrestled with this for a long time and have settled on the least worst solution: paywalled articles are only allowable if there's an easy workaround that everyone access, like Archive.is, which you've helpfully shared. It's annoying that we have to deal with this issue but we're still better off with the articles than not. We can do without mean words like “obnoxious” for people contributing interesting articles for the community to read. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
