Nothing else then 12ft Ladder, which can't pass hard paywalls
by Wilhelm Hellenbrand Wilhelm Hellenbrand, 2023-12-27

I love it so far. However, I know that success depends on the website. For example, it worked great for Washington Post on multiple articles. But no text got through on Wall Street Journal articles. I figure that if I were a regular WSJ reader, I probably would also have the wherewithal for subscriptions to most everything. For me, it has been successful for websites on which no other paywall extensions worked, so this is the most important paywall tool I have right now.
