Hacker News Reader

Otoh, without archive.today a substantial % of HN posts would be unreadable for nearly all of the audience.

I doubt it.

You may have mixed it up with archive.org.

I suggest you double-check that. Archive.today/archive.is is the one which bypasses paywalls and makes unreadable content readable, not archive.org

Archive.is links have not worked for me for over a year. Infinite captcha loop.

Ah! You may well be right. Thanks.

That's bad then, to depend on that for paywall bypass...

I hope very much that the situation evolves into a more satisfactory one.
