Wtf, how can a post in a piracy group be a link to a site that won't let you read an article unless you subscribe or create an account..?!

The same way I haven't seen an ad in years, I also use a paywall bypass extension.

So I guess it skips my mind sometimes; when none of these sites have had paywalls for years.

I would argue a good chunk of the people here would prefer the OG link so they can archive it themselves (or make an offline .html copy directly)

Yeah, I understand. Sometimes, it just irritates me, so sorry for overreacting.

Does this extension work on android version of Firefox, and can you share it? Thx

Could you possibly share the extension? Asking for a friend

I am 100% unaffiliated w/ OP, but I would guess they use Magnolia's bypass.

However; I am on v3.0.8.0 (2023-03-05), so I can't speak for anything newer than that out of his/her repo or in the extension mentioned.

A fun reminder: always read what your extensions can do before yolo-clicking a download by a burner account.

I just spent like an hour trying several methods to install this on Android, sadly I was not successful. If anyone can inform me on how to install this on Firefox for Android (not a fork), please let me know.

Firefox does not support all extensions on Android yet. But should be soon I think.
