They’re running a business, not a charity. You are free to find the recipes elsewhere.

I hate ppl who complain abt paywall or the narratives included before you get to the recipe.
Freeloaders. Lazy ppl who have no creative or cooking skills thinking they’re entitled to other ppls work for free.
This is not freeloading. You can go to the library and get all these newspaper, magazines and books for free. People blog about these recipes and you can get them for free. There is no need for a firewall. People are getting these recipes for free already. Why are these people lazy? People are not entitled, it’s already free out there. You just have to look. Everyone is circumventing the firewalls anyways and already getting the recipes for free. Just get rid of the firewall.
Well, then they’d go belly up and cease to exist. Profit margins in publishing are razor thin. If it is so easy to get recipes for free…go get them! Go to the library, or look. You said people shouldn’t be lazy, so don’t be lazy! Chop chop!
Yes, that's what will happen if they can't create content for value that is not already available anywhere else.
But it isn’t readily available, or else OP wouldn’t be complaining about how hard it is to get it. They want you to pay for it. When you get it free from the library it is because the library has paid for a subscription - NYT doesn’t just hand out free everything to libraries. You then can access at the library because you are a member.
Pay for what you use.

So it's not enough that there are ways around the pay wall (a firewall is a different thing, btw), those ways have to be easier?
Lazy.

Maybe you should just subscribe to the NYT like any well educated person does and you’d get the NYT recipes along with your news.
Grow up, be an adult, and prioritize your expenses.

agree! I don't want to know anything about what the author thinks. Why would I? I'm going for a recipe. I don't care how much the cook wants to be an influencer

But they are advertising SO you will pay. Thats the reason they are advertising. That's like saying If you are advertising your new novel on Facebook, let people read it for free! The reason you advertise is to get people to buy.
I hate recipe paywalls, too, but I understand that publications of all sorts need revenue to exist.
Seriously. How do you think they pay the staff to do the testing and write the daily newsletters? I pay for NYT Cooking for the expertise and the ideas and the newsletters. It’s like $50 a year. If I don’t buy lunch at work for four days, that’s paid for. I love it.

And then there is a whole section just describing the ingredients. Like what more can you say about bacon!
Lol. Well, actually, I could say a LOT about bacon! For the most part though, I could do without the reminiscences.
Do they get paid by the page?
I think that with more page space, they have more room for ads. Just use the cooked.wiki/ thing I mentioned above; it's amazing!

Add 'cooked.wiki/' (without the quotes) in front of the https. You're welcome!
