    There are better ways to do what you are implying. The entire FOSS movement is an example of this.

    Free doesn't mean free beer.

    I would say that the FOSS movement is proof that some form of payment may be required, otherwise most projects are at the mercy of subsidies from corporations.

    I have a Jellyfin server at home, yes.

    What does that even have to do with being a sponsored project or not?

    Because Jellyfin.

    That’s the answer to every time plex or open source comes up.

    Jellyfin! Try Jellyfin!

    I accidentally bypassed the paywall by clicking one of the links to a different article (the "Go fuck yourself, Bambu" link to GN) and then clicking the back button. When I landed back on the Verge article, the "subscribe to the verge to continue reading" message was gone and I had the full article text.

    Only worked once tho, I just tried to do it again and I still get the "subscribe" message now.
