A Firefox fork like IronFox with an aggressive adblocker setup like uBlock Origin in medium mode blocks paywalls and all kinds of annoying popups on most sites. Takes a bit of tweaking to not break some sites, but after that it’s amazing.
Journalists need to be paid. Ad revenue is in freefall, and it never really supported long form content that doesn’t endorse a product. If you want real news, it has to be paid for somehow.
ewwww, a paywall.
other people have made good suggestions as well but I use Bypass Paywalls Clean as a Firefox add-on and it works great
I don’t think writers should be paid either. We have AI to do all writing now anyway, so what do we need writecels for anyway? 😏
