Ratings and reviews

So one could argue about the new app structure, I think it just needs some time to get used to it. But I'm paying already for Spiegel+ and then getting the most ridiculous ads in my face while reading? Full page ads in the middle of the reading experience? And you're asking for another anti-ad subscription on top of the 20€? Oh, and that would only get rid of "most" ads? Seriously? Not "all"? This is beyond ridiculous! If this doesn't change soon I'll have to stop the subscription.

The retro look, all these different fonts and font sizes, the color, the layout, the in-your-face ads....and now the bragging about the dark mode. Red on black and light grey on black is very hard to read. Bottomline, good content but a horrible app. Just like the website. A UI and general design mess that makes you want to leave as quickly as possible. I've been reading Spiegel for decades but this is unbearable.

excessive amount of *animated* advertisements. EDIT: just my opinion, but I think ads should not make it hard to focus on the content - somewhat like the fact that TV ads run mainly between content, not during. the portion of animated ads has continually risen to a point where it actually interferes with reading articles. I would have preferred if reading with Spiegel+ could be compared to the magazine with ads - but it's a lot worse. I will need to pick between uninstall and paying another 5€
