Marreta

Marreta is an open-source, browser-based tool designed to enhance web browsing by removing paywalls and other reading obstructions. Developed as a successor to an earlier project, it offers improved features and active development.

Key Features

• Paywall Bypass: Marreta effectively removes various types of paywalls, including hard and soft paywalls, enabling users to access content that would otherwise be restricted.

• Content Cleaning: The tool cleans and optimizes HTML content, removes tracking parameters, and forces HTTPS connections to ensure a secure and streamlined reading experience.

• Customization: Users can configure domain-specific rules, block unwanted domains, and set custom headers and cookies according to their preferences.

• Docker Deployment: Marreta can be easily deployed using Docker and Docker Compose, allowing for flexible and scalable usage.

• Browser Extensions: Official extensions are available for major browsers, enabling users to access Marreta’s features directly while browsing.

Usage

To use Marreta, users simply open the interface and enter the URL of the webpage they want to access. The tool processes the content and presents a cleaned version, free from paywalls and distractions.

Considerations

While Marreta provides an efficient means to access paywalled content, users should be mindful of the legal and ethical implications of bypassing such restrictions. It’s important to respect the rights of publishers and content creators.

Marreta is part of a broader suite of open-source tools aimed at improving digital accessibility and user autonomy. The project is community-driven and open to contributions.
