You can probably get access through your local public library, if you’re on their Wi-Fi. OED has been like this for as long as I’ve been paying attention. Source: librarian and before that was annoyed at OED, but now I’m almost always on work Wi-Fi if I’m looking something up, so it’s invisible to me.

Yep, exactly this.
I use OED as my standard reference when writing - I can log in from anywhere with my library card number and get full access without paying a penny.
