As the title says. I am using the ByPass Paywall add-on and it used to work, but since some time it just doesn’t. I’ve made sure the site I am trying to visit is listed in the list of sites, and I’ve also manually added it, but to no avail. Does anyone know any good alternatives to bypass paywalls, or some way of troubleshooting the add-on?

    Ah thanks, now I understand the other message I read about uBlock. I tried disabling uBlock for that particular website to get the Bypass Paywall add-on to work but it never did. Someone suggested to install Bypass Paywall Clean d, and that worked out of the box

      If you don’t have it, install uBlock Origin. Uninstall any other adblocker. If you don’t trust me, do your own research, but uBlock is the only one you need. Do not disable it on a website, unless you’re having a major problem on an important website (like banking, something you need to access, but I’ve rarely had that problem). You just need to look where I mentioned and enable the filter. I believe it should already be there, you just need to enable it. I don’t have any other “ByPass Paywall” add-on extensions and I view, but don’t pay for, all sorts of different websites, without paying for them or logging in.

        I do have uBlock origin installed. I wouldn’t get anywhere near the Internet without it (haven’t seen an add in years). But I really aware of the possibility of using uBlock for Paywall bypassing. Thanks for the tip!
