Periodic reminder to please directly subscribe to quality news sources to help fund good journalism. Especially local newspapers which have been really struggling. They are often the only ones holding your local elected officials accountable or reporting on them to any degree.

I reserve the right to complain about it being behind a paywall when it’s from, say, the Washington Post. Basically a pet project of Jeff Bezos in the same way Hearst properties used to be. They say what he wants… I’m pretty sure he can afford to pay the remaining good journalists without relying on further funding.
For pretty much everybody else, I’m on board. I wish I was easier way to spend money, preferably without giving every single news organization my personal and banking info.

Nope, can’t complain about Washington Post being behind a paywall cos you shouldn’t be giving them clicks anyway
Overruled 😂
