A site similar to 12ft.io but is self hosted and works with websites that 12ft.io doesn’t work with.

How does it work?

It pretends to be GoogleBot (Google’s web crawler) and gets the same content that google will get. Google gets the whole page so that the content of the article can be indexed properly and this takes advantage of that.

    If you’re on Android and use Firefox, you can use the Disable JavaScript extension to disable JS on sites with paywalls, like NYtimes. While not perfect, it works remarkably well.

    Also works great on Desktop.
