Hacker News Reader

Yeah, made worse by the fact the submitter is obviously the "author" and presumably, ads beneficiary of TFA.

The submission was flagged for a while and rightfully so, maybe the link should be changed to the one you provided...

Seriously. I feel like there should be some rule that any link to a news story should be a link to a major trustworthy news organization. When I see these other domains I immediately assume fake news.

"major trustworthy", I don't think this means what you think it means.

"corporate infotainment and propaganda"?

But now I'm stuck behind a paywall. Do I have to pay for a NYT subscription to read hackernews now?

I don't get this performative helplessness people put on.

The NYT paywall doesn't function if you disable JavaScript in uBlock Origin or something similar. Tools like Archive.is have been around for years. Both of these techniques are regularly shared every time a NYT article comes up on HN or Fark.com or Reddit.
