can you recommend one?I use an adblocker, if I had to face all that shite I wouldn't ever look.

True they've got a bit touchy & arrogant of late but try contradicting Less Read he will block you very swiftly.All of the above, plus their cocky staff on twitter unable to take constructive criticism.
Using Microsoft Edge on Win 10 with Adblock Plus also at the moment.I'm using adblock plus and firefox.
Could that be because they're all owned by Mirror Group.It's the same with most local newspaper sites now, unfortunately. Leicester Mercury is the same, 'Want to read this? First, close these five ads, answer a survey and give your next door neighbour a reacharound.'
Yes probably. Who gives a rats ass what happens in Solihull (apart from people who live there :emoji_grinCould that be because they're all owned by Mirror Group.
Totally agree with this thread. I used to browse CT every day and enjoy the comments banter on certain articles as well.
Now it's laggy, covered in auto-playing flash videos, adverts, and those horribly designed surveys.
One solution is to disable javascripts in Chrome settings. It should remove at least some of this clutter (also works on websites like Mail Online).
However it's not really a solution as many useful pages use java - so I basically just don't read them much any more.

5 reasons why people don't look at the telegraph site any more
1) ads
2) surveys
3) lagging
4) random videos
5) most articles are about 5 reasons why.......
It's got to the stage now that if I ever read anything in the Daily Mail that I know to be true, I still go and check it online elsewhere just to be sure.You read the Daily Mail?! Quick lads, lynch the Tory bastard!
But it has to be on farmhouse breadcant bear to look at it anymore. Used to go on there everyday, but as you say, you have to navigate the surveys, adverts and pop ups, just to find out 5 things that Jordan willis likes for tea*
*gotta say, I was surprised he likes marmite sandwiches
I avoid those 5 reasons why articles like the plague, they're always irrelevant, repetitive and boring, space filler stories.
The Mirror Group papers are all just publishing from the same repository. The same shite comes up on the Manchester Evening NewsOK, so what the fuck does this have to do with Coventry?!?

of course it is, everyone'll be clicking in the vain hope of finding some local link!
Could even cope with one of it, but how many stories on a random bloke in a coma do you actually need?!?

Isn't a rich piana a Steinway? Maybe there's something on at the Belgrade?His name almost spells RICOH. I can see the confusion
Closest conclusion I could come to
Something seems to be working for them read to the end of the article.....

Have to admit I prefer how the paper used to be a year or so ago.
tbf, he said he preferred it before they started doing all that
A Gilbert-esque reply.
Anything to do with masses of misleading clickbait? If judged just on how many people have opened a page it doesn't take quality into consideration so not sure how it's a reply when people discuss quality.
If employing people solely to copy and paste articles and then hammer the shit out of them on social media with misleading titles then of course daily views will go up. It's the lad bible approach.
It's up there with just screenshotting "most read" as a reply when somebody says anything about the quality or how it's unrelated to Coventry.
