I am sure that the article is fascinating. However, I could not get passed the ads. The text of the article loaded within a second, but then the ads started to appear pushing the text somewhere. Then cookies banner took up a solid 1/4 of the screen. Then some of the ads reloaded changing size. Horrendous experience that killed any desire to read the article itself
wow, that site’s ads are so invasive I can barely read the content
So many ads just to read an article…
There are ads on the front page designed to look like content.
The link has waaaaay too many ads. Almost unreadable if you don't run an ad blocker. The content provider should consider a more tasteful, smaller ad footprint. It might even increase ad engagement.
The ads made this unreadable. Is this a thing? Get to hackernews front page & then inject your post with as many ads as possible to “cash in”?
Not related to the content, the amount of ads in this website makes the article barely readable, especially on mobile.
Wow those ads are intrusive, could barely find the start of the article let alone read it.
So hard to see the content sneaked in around the ads
It's impossible to read the article because of the ads.
