… seems like we the HN community should find a new site to mirror with.

There isn't one. As far as I know, no one really knows for sure how they bypass all these paywalls. (Most credible theory I heard: They actually just pay for the subscriptions.)

Most paywalls just allow search engines to read their content just fine. Because they do want discoverability, they want their cake and eat it.

There's a few publications that don't even do that though and archive.is is very good at bypassing them so I do imagine they use logins for those, but for the masses of sites it's not currently necessary.
