New myself, but you seem to be doing it right.
However, the link only shows the first paragraph unless you have an account, at least for Firefox on Android.

I googled paywall blockers, and this one is working for me.

NO paywall here, Firefox on desktop + NoScript and origin. Probably NoScript blocking the paywall.

Some might say that some Redditors have always been revolting!

It’s nice that you shared this info, but could you try and stay away from money locked websites? A (granted European) student doesn’t have money. Or not enough anyways xD

Generally 12ft.io or archive.ph will sort out a paywall, also there are a number of plugins which can unlock them

NoScript (a Firefox extension) seems to have disabled the paywall for me. Might have been origin too, but I doubt it.
