Hacker News Reader

In the Netherlands the library provides free access to thousands of newspapers for 5 days after visiting, including The Economist and WSJ, which actually have paywalls that aren't trivial to bypass.

I just checked and the Berlin public library offers press reader as well. Will need to check that out.

Thanks for the tip!

How do you bypass the paywall with it? I can only read the “newspaper version” on their site it seems.

Edit: Just read your comment again. I assume that’s exactly what you meant.

PressReader allows reading various newspapers (in their newspaper form), the short sub to NYT I mentioned is a bit different and gives you access to the online version.

Example for LA libraries: https://www.lapl.org/new-york-times-digital

Your local library might have a similar offering specifically for the NYT.
