The Register's 2018 homepage redesign: What's going on now?

jfm

Looking at the new homepage on a Moto 5g in Chrome. It's hopeless: have you actually viewed it on a phone?

There is not a single headline visible: just an ad covering half the screen, and the top part of the image for the first story. The font on the first 5 or so stories is way too large and just wastes screen space. In the remaining stories with images, the image is too big, taking up half the width of the box with the text crammed into the other half almost as an afterthought. The boxes are ugly, and between them and the wide linespacing there's a general sense, again, of wasted screen space.

Clicking through to the archive is like a breath of fresh air: headlines and stories with no faffing about.

Please, try reading the page on a phone and then reconsider the design.
