Basically the same as the two above, but as a tampermonkey script. I use it with the lsposed module chrome-xt to make it work with Chrome on Android

Use UBlock Origin, enable no Javascript. 50/50 to work when you reload. If it doesn’t, archive the website. If that’s too tedious, you can use UBlock’s element zapper to physically remove paywalls too.

I never once saw that website working. archive.is is where it’s at.

What is the actual role of “Vercel” in this whole stack? How is it different from renting a VPS and running the website there?

I feel at one point there was AngularJS. Then I blinked and now front end frameworks are being hydrated and there is Vercel and Deno Deploy and what not. I don’t get any of this shit.
