Yeah, archive.is or archive.org is another easy way to bypass, but if you just open 1-2 articles per day (I relaunch browser daily) cookie deleting on exit also works.
It'd be too bad to block all these, I agree paywall links are no good tho, I like it if someone copies and pastes one paragraph, maybe the main point or something. That's what I do.
Something to start a discussion, not just a link where you don't know what it's about and it's a paywall. No point to that.
Only doing 2 a day or deleting cookies etc I feel like it's not worth it to do unless it's something I really want to read. But how do I know that without a synopsis? At the least.
One good thing about Reddit, people post paywalled msm links there all the time, but someone in the comments usually copies and pastes the whole article.

Here's a list of news websites I autodelete cookies from on browser restart (most of paywalls depend on view counter stored in a cookie/db):
"bloomberg.com
bostonglobe.com
businessinsider.com
cnn.com (?)
economist.com
forbes.com
foreignpolicy.com
ft.com (hard paywall, cookie deleting doesn't work)
haaretz.com
latimes.com
medium.com
nationalgeographic.com
nybooks.com
nymag.com
nytimes.com
qz.com
reuters.com
rollingstone.com
scientificamerican.com
technologyreview.com

Maybe don't outright block but mark them with a flair?
UPD Also I'm not sure about all of them, some introduce and remove paywalls, this list exists for years now.
Wow. Thank you for the list. I had a feeling someone might have some info.
Isn't there a way with archive.org to make these readable

Yeah. That is quite a few sites. I'll have to double check them, and weigh the idea in general.
