I haven’t experienced the NY times paywall in awhile. I don’t mean to sound lectury but there really is no reason to not use Firefox desktop or mobile with ublock origin. It is so much nicer of a web experience, and NY times has some nice articles.
I was actually mistaken in my earlier comment, I meant to say Bypass Paywalls Clean, but actually that add-on was removed previously from the Firefox store due to a copyright claim (it became too popular). I have it installed because it was only removed from the store, not from users who had it installed already.
Like you found out though your searching, the BPC filter list can be imported into uBlock Origin through it’s settings menu.

<.< Fuck iOS people then, I suppose.
I just downloaded Firefox and installed uBlock on my phone to test this. Didn’t work. Any specific settings?
Edit: hmm OK, figured out the custom filter import for paywalls… do you feel comfortable adding Javascript managed by random people to your browser?
For anyone who doesn’t know this… Install uBlock > My filters > scroll down until you see import…
Import these two:

I don’t know… I don’t feel comfortable doing this. I usually only install trusted stuff in my machines. This feels like an easy way to get screwed.
