This news site is 60% Amazon ads.
Sorry if this pic is a bit blurry. I took a photo of my colleges computer screen from my phone.

I bet on mobile it is even worse!
Using a web browser on your phone is almost completely useless these days what with how messed up the formatting is and how many endless ads there are. The most irritating thing is how a lot of news sites don't even both including images of their news stories. Probably to save the bandwidth. I've noticed stories which referred to photos or drawings and none were visible on mobile. Of all media formats, one would think a web browser on a high resolution screen would be a great one to depict images. Nope. At least not on a lot of sites. They probably prefer to use that space for more ads, I think.
I use Firefox for Android with uBlock Origin and the ads don't even download. Saves on bandwidth and makes the web usable.
I might have to look into that, but even if the ads all went away, the formating for mobile sites is atrocious.
No doubt. For a huge proportion of sites I just use the desktop version plus pinch to zoom
I actually just stayed using kiwi browser since it's a chromium fork that supports plugins on Android. Ublock and some other choice extensions are going pretty well for me so far
