Thoughts on linking to paywalled sites?
Thoughts on linking to paywalled sites? - Beehaw
I want to be clear that this is not a reaction to any specific post, just something that I’m thinking about as I’m browsing around. What do people think about linking to paywalled content? I find it frustrating, personally–but only if I’m not currently paying for the material, because if I am then I’m logged in and likely won’t notice. Maybe it would be nice to have a guideline, a suggestion, for people posting links to such content as top-level posts to provide a summary (like on this post [https://beehaw.org/post/442327?scrollToComments=true]) for those who don’t have access? Also, I apologize if this is something that’s been discussed already and decided upon; I’m quite new to Beehaw / Lemmy, and this is on my mind so I figured I’d ask :)
