@louis Wired, Washington Post, Atlantic. For now I only do intro offers at reasonable prices. If they would all get together, Iād go up to $100 a year for all-access.

@louis Is #TheEconomist a national newspaper?Also my case is kinda funny, because I don't use the subscription to read the newspaper :D I read it via #rssbridge.But they have interesting subscriber events from time to time, so the subscription is not entirely useless.

@louis My problem is that I would like to pay for journalism, but not always read the same paper. Normally I want to see different perspectives on a particular story, but there doesn't appear to be cost effective way of doing that. Each newspaper subscription is already really expensive.

@louis I read the rss feeds of two local-ish newspapers (amidst my other rss feeds).

@louis I have a print subscription to the Washington Post which is my local paper. It gives me free access to the digital edition too.

@hl @louis Apple News+ does that but of course you need to use iOS/macOS

@louis I'm not opposed to paying for one but haven't found many worthy of paying for.

@louis @adx Thanks. I'm not really in the Apple ecosystem, even if news+ does seem like a good choice. Readly looks interesting, even if it's list of first class newspapers seems very short. There is the more complete pressreader.com , but that's already 30⬠a month.
