but recently, have slid in what I would dub "lifestyle business" stuff - I guess what they call their "essays" (people who retired somewhere in another country and what their experiences were or someone who bought a house to renovate and had included descriptions of the work done and cost, etc).

They used to be partially paywalled, with a couple free views... But then last fall, they threw up a full paywall (sortof like what Axios has done now). But then suddenly this past spring, they pulled down the paywall, and I haven't run into one since.
