MODERATORS
Dont post paywalled links
I replied to main thread with text of article, but essentially it is advocating for adoption of no-fault insurance coverage (where hospital/medical payouts are handled first and separately) because currently some accident victims aren’t made whole, particularly in states with low minimum coverages amounts or with high uninsured driver rates.
It isn't against the rules.
not being against the rules doesnt make it any less annoying to other users.
Maybe, but someone else posted the text of the article. A lot of subs have people or bots that will do that.
And if the sub has a style guide for how posts should be formated, which I followed, it should set the expectation as to whether the poster should post a bypass around a paywall or just not post the article at all.
