Zette is what I wish I had for years. I wish they had more publications on the platform but I’m confident that will come in time as they gain popularity and those publications are forced to play ball.

Pros
+ paywall access (3)
Cons
limited publisher partnerships (3)

Really great-but it can be a bit tricky figuring out if the extension is glitching or if the publication just isn't a partner.

I think it works really well, simple to install, and then boom it's going. What's better with this than most paywall removers is that there's a chance the journalists are still getting something (indirectly I know) when you're skipping the paywall. It's like an ethical adblocker.

Slightly pricey, as someone who is a reader but doesn't always come up against paywalls being locked into a monthly sub is making me second-guess the decision to g for it. (Full disclosure, I'm on the free trial right now) I think the option to purchase credits as a pay-as-you-go kinda system could work really nicely here.

Overall, cool business, a cool app, would (and have) recommend it to people I work with/know

Pros
+ simple installation (2)+ ethical revenue sharing (2)
Cons
high price (2) monthly subscription model (1)

I was excited for Zette’s launch because so many articles I want to read are behind paywalls. But I was disappointed once they launched to see their product list. No good content like NYT, Atlantic, or the Cut. Mostly just local newspapers of places I live no where near and wouldn’t care to read. And for a high price. Makes no sense to me and not sure who the target audience is for these selections.

Cons
limited publisher partnerships (3) high price (2)
