also feel free to comment your own suggestions for news sites for tech updates that don't pay wall on the web page.

New York times - https://www.nytimes.com/section/technology abc - https://abcnews.go.com/technology

the hill - https://thehill.com/policy/technology/ BBC news - https://www.bbc.com/news/technology

while nonprofit Npr doesn't pay wall, they have a new pop up that says something along the likes of "expected a paywall not our style please donate" that the user can dismiss and continue browsing the site. https://www.npr.org/sections/technology/

Reuters use to be a good source for me untill they started pay walling after a small amount of news article reads.

I've tried quite a few Unpaywall versions of add-ons before and never had too much luck.

I suppose I'll add another to the try list lol.

This one works very well. Of course it depends on the website but it supports a lot of them, including a lot of local and non English sites. I use it for a long time now, back then it was even still on the official addon store.
