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.

    Correct. The level of entitlement I’ve seen here on Lemmy is generally astonishing.

    These companies have dozens of members of staff who absolutely deserve to be paid for their work. They’re not allowed to run ads, they’re not allowed to ask to be paid, what the fuck else are they supposed to do?

    Fuck, even for YouTube - if you use the service, either pay, watch ads, or just don’t use the service at all. It’s not that hard.

      I get it but if the work is to generate an unreadable article made by chatGPT then no thank you. Albeit they may generate using chatGPT because they’re paid peanuts and just wanna go home🫤

        I’m an avid reader and listener of NPR (and I do support my local station - fingers crossed we’ll get the NPR+ bundle soon), and I have yet to see any article that even remotely seemed to be written by an AI.

        What do we do in this case?

            It’s great stuff, but I don’t like having to support individual shows - I want to just get the bundle and support all the big ones. :/ So bizarre that it’s not available in every state.
