If you must post a story from a #paywalled news site like #TheScotsman , can't you at least give a one line precis so we know wtf we can't read without "agreeing to view personalised ads" and then go read about it from a less aggressive host?

Failure to do so here on #mastodon should be as poorly regarded as not using #alttext imo

I’ve received my copy of “When Trees Were Green”, the collected columns of the late Fordyce Maxwell. He is most heartbreaking when writing about the murder of his young daughter, Susan, by serial killer Robert Black. “The silent scream never fades. There is life after a child has been murdered. It is never the life you wanted or planned. But at least it is a life - the murdered children never had that chance.” All proceeds go to Prostate Cancer UK! #FordyceMaxwell #TheScotsman #ProstateCancerUK

On this day of solidaritih with Garrih Linnekar, things shouldn't be about #MatchOfTheDay at all.

Instead, see whether you can tell without looking it up when The Scotsman published this:

'the policy of the fully open door is not practicable, and it is important that oppressed minorities should not assume that admission into this country is to be offered to all and sundry'

I didn't leave newspapers, newspapers left me.

In this blog post I explain my reasons for firstly ditching my long association with printed copies of The Scotsman newspaper, and then abandoning that publication entirely. By doing this I severed my direct connection to any newspapers.
