What link proxies do you use to bypass news paywalls? (lemm.ee)

Not sure if this is the right community but seems close enough.

Ideally i want a url that i can just put any paywalled news article into that will return the unpaywalled version.

Ie: https://somedomain/https://somenewssite/somenewsartle

I need it to work with https://pypi.org/project/newspaper4k/

Alternativly if someone knows of another python library that can extract article text and images automaticly just from a link that would also solve my problem.

No, just this example code from their site:

browser = p.chromium.launch(headless=True)

My mistake was not knowing where newspaper4k fits in the stack. They're wrapping it with Playwright, which it seems you could do here.

Ahh i see. Im using newspaper4k to fetch articles directly it seems the example u found is just using it simply as a parser after using playwright as a html fetcher. I might try that approach.
