Overall, most press/journalism sites I use are terrible. Performance stinks, flash everywhere, ads that nobody clicks on. Horrible.

- fivestar 9y agoNot to mention all the "adblock detected" crap. I used to disable adblock, but anymore I just give up and go away. They can all FOAD for all I care.

- mixmastamyk 9y agoSometimes it's just css, and hitting the "readbility" button will strip out the junk. Also, I won't go to a journalism site without NoScript or Focus, too painful without.
- thedarkginger 9y agoIt kind of blows my mind that even real, serious journalism outlets cheapen their product like this (nearing the mid-2000s music lyrics website threshold). Got a NYT digital subscription to see if it was worth it, and I like it. Would be more likely to keep going if it extended to other publishers, and I could consistently access an ad-free, ad-blocker gate free experience.
