About Prometheus

Paywall-free gift links to news articles, ranked by how widely they’re shared.

Links are gathered from Bluesky and Mastodon, updated frequently throughout the day.

Gift links usually expire about two weeks after they’re shared, and expired links are removed automatically. Some publications also cap how many times a gift link can be opened, so a popular link may stop working sooner.

Prometheus is a fine hypertext product from kottke.org.
