In the past job I had, I would see this all the time. I’d go in for doing a repair charging $150 + $100 an hour, free beer and food to take home. But the weird part is I would just walk into the kitchen shoot the shit with the owner, set up and then ask staff for help. And everyone was oddly compliant, I mean I would be extremely polite but it was awkward how after them seeing me talk with the owners that I got some sort of authority over people.

Please post archive links, I get you either pay for or subscribe to these articles, but some of us can't/don't want to do either.

I don’t even want to give them my email address to access their “free” content

I’d rather the real website be linked so I can easily open it in Apple News (which I pay for). And the archive pages have captchas that don’t work on VPN.
But regardless, it shouldn’t be the job of the poster to satisfy everyone’s little requirement: use extensions or whatever is available on your platform. Why is it the job of the person posting to meet your specific preferences?

I'm so happy you have the privilege and are concerned about those who don't.

I put a dummy email and apparently they don't you confirm and, but it's definitely annoying anyway.

Real victim-blamey way of saying how the working class is being exploited.
