Thanks for the project link. I've just been using the "don't show articles from____" feature in my Android/google news feed.

"In comments, it's ok to ask how to read an article and to help other users do so. But please don't post complaints about paywalls. Those are off topic."

If we complain enough about paywalls, the guidelines will change.

After being on here for 10 years, I have zero expectations that policy will ever change. I see you've been on here quite a while yourself. I don't have that kind of hope anymore.

Websites pay each other for Referer hits. It may or may not be true that HN gets money for paywall stories, but I don't see any ads on HN, do you? Do you ever notice paywalled stories staying on the front page longer even when they have few upvotes?
