Q. What is the difference between “https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-chrome-clean” and “https://github.com/iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome”

A.

For brevity, let's call “Bypass Paywalls Chrome Clean” as BPC and “Bypass Paywalls” as BP.

Notes:

• BPC is a fork of BP created by magnolia1234
• BPC has some additional features
• BPC is cleaner because it removes Google Analytics but BP has it and refused to remove it.

On 2023-10-18, I wanted to report that barrons.com is not working with https://github.com/iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome . But I could not. https://github.com/iamadamdev/bypass-paywalls-chrome/issues/new gave the following notice.

An owner of this repository has limited the ability to open an issue to users that have contributed to this repository in the past.

barrons.com worked out of the box with https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-chrome-clean .

Till now I was using BP. But decided to move to BPC going forward.
