Disorganised...
This really is a step backwards from the previous versions. All the stories appear in what looks like random groupings of news, sports and entertainment with different sized and for the most part oversized photos associated with each one. Theres no obvious "Headline" list making it harder to decipher whats important.
...And because of the oversized photos you have to scroll excessively to get through it all.
There is a menu where you can select the category youre interested in which helps - a little. But the default state of the main page at open is just a mess...
This seems to be an example of "form over function" where graphic designers have run amok.. Prior versions were more concise where you could see most headlines at a glance, then click into whatever story you were interested in.
Downsizing the photos and recreating a concise Headline list would, in my opinion, be a big help...
