Love this extension! Makes reading articles so much easier without jumping through login hoops.
This extension is a total game-changer. I’m currently doing an internship and I have to find a lot of articles and info for my tasks, but it’s so frustrating when everything is hidden behind a paywall. I found this "Open Read" tool and it’s been so helpful. Instead of searching for ways to get around a block, I just click the extension and it gives me a few different options like Archive.is or 12ft.io right there in a menu. It’s super simple to use and I and also is a very time saving tool.
