To be clear, I’m not against paying for it - they do fantastic journalism and it’s worth supporting them. It’s just a surprise that they’ve implemented this given their stance has previously been very anti-paywall, instead making their money through other means.

In terms of the numbers, the usage to hit the paywall is about 4 articles a day, and they send out on average around 3 breaking news notifications a day so you just need to click on all of those to come very close to the limit. That might just mean that they send out too many notifications though!

125 is approximately 4 a day, so it’s really not that much. I suspect a lot are just opening articles (eg, by accidentally swiping sideways) rather than fully reading them too.
