Dear everyone! It would be wonderful if you could mark links to paywalled articles as such โ€“ something simple like โ€œ($)โ€ is more than good enough. Maybe we can make this part of the quiet Mastodon etiquette?

It is super frustrating to get a link to an article that sounds interesting, go there, click away the cookie banner,* then click away the newsletter popup, finally start reading and then the text fades out.

* I am aware there are tools for that.
