Ublock origin requires Filters that you can select from a provided list, or enter in/download yourself.
Noscript (likely redundant but I don’t know how to use Ublock to do this) lets you select which scripts a site runs and disable whichever ones are necessary to clean the page of garbage/reveal the article.
Every page is different and changes so it isn’t perfect but once you are familiar with how it works you can ‘Pick’ blocking boxes to automatically create a filter that removes the box (on reload) if necessary.
Spending 20 minutes fiddling with noscript and ublock rules to find out whether it’s even possible to get in that way for each new paywalled site you accidentally follow a link to is no substitute for instantly fixing them all with one extension.
That is the list.

Ok, will just keep using archive.is
Until it gets shut down as well. This isn’t a great precedent we are walking into

It’s not nearly as bad as you make it sound, but you are right that the OG is better than generic tools you need to configure
