    I was also frustrated at the lack of non-paywalled link, but your comment prompted me to try long pressing the article link on Thunder and lo and behold there’s an option for alternate sources with a archive.today link.

        Not seeing anything like that on Voyager. Would be nice though, the ammount of posts that are just links to a paywall has been reaching reddit levels.

          I find those very frustrating, as they are basically advertisements for you to spend money to read further. i.e. they are a “tease”.

          And then not even any conversation about them. I wish the Hot sort for posts would show a lot fewer of those. I find that it helps to unsubscribe from most of the most popular communities - at least on PieFed I always have the option to regain viewing their content at the mere touch of a button, like News and Politics shows it all anyway, so I do not have to be subscribed to see it, and that way it at least declutters my Subscribed feed. Though even the more moderately-populated communities are becoming that way too.
