Indeed, ASUS' Strix wouldn't take long to find: The laptop's otherwise subdued chassis is adorned with glowing neon orange highlights. I miss the days when the ads were just at the beginning and end of the content.Spotting a gaming laptop in a crowded coffee shop is easy - just look for the loudest, most garish machine in the room. Something just happens to get a good laugh out of me, and then - BAM! A Manscaped ad. Then again, opinions are subjective.I know that the ads are for the benefits of said sites and I don't mind supporting them by turning my blocker off, but some of them are so disruptive to the end user experience, to the point of PRESSURING the user into using adblockers.Įspecially on Youtube, when I'm watching entertainment-type content.
Even the seperators (the 2 horizontal red lines) between section looks a bit kiddish, Its 2020, you can do much better than that. The same headings on anandtech are in a big grey box. Anybody who cant read smaller than that font will zoom in.
Especially the headings on the right layout. Regarding the text part, the top part of the landing page looks a bit cluttered. No offence, I am a tomshardware reader since the dial up era, but the site was a lot nicer back then.

Cheers!Not sure about the ads, most websites show so much ads, that its literally impossible to surf a website without an adblocker, especially toms. It's sort of the reputation Tom's has built of the years: go deep.
Anyway, are you saying we have too much text on our front page? The usual complaint is too many ads, which is also out of our hands.įor articles, we try to mix in a few images and tables with the text every 3-5 paragraphs, but we do tend to get technical and sometimes just a bit long-winded. AnandTech is one of the exceptions - transition to our Vanilla CMS has been indefinitely delayed.

Just sharing my thoughts.Nearly everything related to presentation on the website is out of our hands - it's controlled by Future, which has a standardized CMS for most of their sites. My preference would be between anandtech and wccftech (leaning almost towards anandtech). For example I like how wccftech's site design is(though that is too much of images and less of text). I feel that TH website feels more 'texty' Large fonts of text with very little gaps between headlines and not enough images makes it not so pleasant to look at or read.
