I just read a story on the Wall Street Journal. I don’t subscribe to the WSJ, and ordinarily would have been stopped by a paywall - however, @trashhalo was kind enough to post a readable archived link. I’ve run into this before, appreciated it each time, and hope it becomes standard practice when dealing with paywalled articles.

That’s all. Thanks, everyone!

    Yeah, it’s generally the etiquette/rule on any of our news subhives to post archive links alongside any link. I appreciate this also because I feel like good journalism should rarely if ever be behind a paywall. Hopefully people on other subhives and other Lemmy instances will do the same. :)
