This is unrelated to the article but I love that npr.org allows opting out of tracking and in exchange for a plain text version of the site.

I’ll happily give up eye candy for privacy and I’m sure it’s much cheaper for them to serve bandwidth wise.

Do you get to the article you were linked to? Because I‘m always redirected to their front page, with no way to get to the article that was linked.

Hmm, no I spoke too soon! Sorry, I can’t reach it either.

Even tried editing the article URL to no avail. :(

There's a nine digit number in the middle of the normal URL. You can take a text-only URL and replace the identifier at the end.

Shame on them for not making all articles reachable from the text home page, and for not redirecting to the article from the choice page.

Tried that, and the "text only" version had no relevant text. It's not just eye candy we give up for privacy, it's the entire content. GDPR might have a say about that.
