THIS!!
I’m thankful MS Edge allows JavaScript disabling at the site level. I have several sites disabled and it works fantastic.
If you have a subscription to Apple News, you can use the Share > News.app feature to open most paywalled major news outlets. And the outlet gets paid.
I don’t have an Android device, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it has something similar.
Is there a firefox add-on for mobile that blocka those annoying cookie popups and also bypasses paywall?
I recently discovered that the Firefox add-on, ublock origin, has in its chooseable block lists, under annoyances, a cookie notice blocker with lots of other annoyance blockers as well.
Can you please share the steps on how to configure ublock ?
Navigate to the uBlock Origin settings. · Select the “Filter lists” tab. · Scroll to the “Annoyances” section. Place a check mark next to “AdGuard/uBO – Cookie Notices”.
Thanks. You’re a LEGEND!
You can usually get past a lot of that stuff by just using the reader mode (button in the address bar)
Thanks. This works but sometimes images dont load.
The Ghostery extension supports auto-declining the cookie prompts.
Consent-O-Matic for cookie pop-ups
Plenty of addons to skip paywalls
Use a terminal browser like w3m or lynx.
These comments are great…I work for the one of the largest news sources on the planet and it’s clear most people think I shouldnt get paid. Thanks.
If those news sources don’t want to give away content for free then they shouldn’t transmit those contents to the user’s computer and then run a client-side script to pretend that they didn’t.

I heard you, but so what?
Ideally I’d just be able to pay you.
Welcome to Lemmy. A place where the user based thinks that anarchism works, everything only being free isn’t mainstream, and that piracy is the answer to teaching big companies a lesson but they will pirate Zelda and talk about how great it is but how terrible Nintendo is rather than just buying Zelda to support devs.
I have been on here 3 weeks and in those 3 weeks I have learned the community here has this thought that they are not as big of ass holes as people on Reddit. However, they are just as inclusive and additionally just different kinds of assholes.
