    If you make a bookmark on your bookmarks toolbar and put:

    javascript:void(location.href=“https://12ft.io/”+location.href);

    in the URL field, whenever you hit a paywall you can click the bookmark and it’ll take you straight to a 12ft.io version.

    Doesn’t often work with academic papers but it usually does for news and commentary.

    E2A:

    javascript:void(location.href=“https://sci-hub.se/”+location.href);

    is the equivalent for sci-hub (works well for academic papers) but you may need a VPN for some jurisdictions.

      This seems like a great idea, but doesn’t do anything for me. Are there any caveats? Have tried it in Firefox and Brave.

        Works for me in Firefox.

        Did you make sure you copied the whole line?

        It needs to be a bookmark on your toolbar. It doesn’t work if you can’t click it directly from the page. I don’t know why.
