WaPo and NYT. I mainly post their articles and consider both to be world-class. Not in some sort of clichéd or hyperbolic sense. Litterly, actually, world class. But I would get complaints about the paywall.

Then I discovered that BOTH papers provide "gift" links so that subscribers can share stories. I assumed it was only good for one view, but I tested it, and it is a true public link, no paywall, to the article.

So since then I've been posting from WaPo and NYT with gift links. No extra cost for me.
