| 2024-03-05 |  |  | en | Works a handful of times then you have to delete it and reinstall it. On this most recent reinstall it never worked. First the paywall screen never went away even after waiting and then refreshing and now everything goes away and you're left with a blank white page. |

| 2023-05-05 |  | | Works for me. Thanks Rajesh Great Job (you clever boy, you ;-) For the 'reader', give it a second or two. Refresh browser if needed, when 'subscribe' box comes up after the first few paragraphs, lick on the extension and it works for me. Be patient, otherwise go buy a subscription as I will when I can to support journalism (which is why im happy to suffer the ads for the time being). Thanks for reading. Install and enjoy. | |
| 2023-02-13 |  | | Does not work, which is disappointing. Maybe this extension should be removed since it no longer works. I looked at the reviews of others and it looks like this extension hasn't worked for awhile. | |

| 2022-09-24 |  | | Doesn't work with: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/20/opinion/us-mental-health-insight.html The paywall goes away but the articles are cut off after the first few paragraphs. Rajesh, can you take a look? |
