Solche Artikel sollten jedem auch ohne sofort ein Abo abschließen zu müssen zugänglich sein.
#PayPerRead heißt die Lösung.

Hier der Artikel des Spiegel ohne Bezahlschranke:

Da kein #payPerRead, sondern nur ein Abo angeboten wird um den Artikel vollständig zu lesen hier der Link ohne #Paywall.
Diese Information ist zu wichtig um hinter einer Paywall zu verschwinden.

Da auch der Tagesspiegel zum lesen eines einzelnen Artikels einem sofort ein Abo aufzwingen will, was ich verabscheue, hier der Link zum Artikel, von der Paywall befreit.

I don't think he is any unique savior. Post.News is already doing this, just as one example.

Not to mention advertising-based publishing is soon threatened by big upcoming changes in search.

I actually DO think this is a big issue, I just think inflating Musk's already bloated ego by suggesting he is somehow showing the way or saving the day is not a good approach to talking about it. It sidetracks into hot button personality issues and misses the ubiquity of the scope and the number of other players exploring this.

See also some notes (at links below) that I wrote at post.news before I stopped blogging there about a different way to think about micropayments. (TL;DR Direct pay per article in advance is problematic. I'd rather pay ahead into a pool that later gets divvied out by formula tracking my use frequency and my decisions to highlight articles I ended up valuing.)

See "On the Managing of Micropayments" by me on Post at https://post.news/@/kentpitman/2JbqCKuASm6rIf6LjohMwlTFLRQ
and, in particular, the included post "A vision of Post subscriptions" by me on Post at https://post.news/@/kentpitman/2JYjq2hWQDI61IAPxJ8iwz4i4FZ
