I wish there was a community notes style opengraph data tag that marked links to articles as paywalled.

weird internet kid. helping Creators with /seemore. yapping on /okbanger. curating in /creators and /cameron. dev + veteran + HBS. 
seemore.tv/cameron 🫡

Ideally it would also let us micropay to read the article

Current paywall UX is terrible

I’m a fan of testing that but old media is old media

So there’s a payment processor price floor for micro transactions which is a hard thing to get around if crypto payments arent ubiquitous anytime soon

But I do think we see some sort of micropayment but in a bottoms up way. 

Big media co’s have oriented their entire biz model around subs + ads - too much inertia

I think micropayments for media are inevitable, just a matter of waiting long enough. You think otherwise?

Sub to the newsletter or pay for one off articles using micro payments. All it would take these publishers is half a brain to integrate and we are there

I hear ya - I used to sell to pubs and they just don’t have the teams + mentality to redo their core infra.
