I like the quality of the articles and there aren't as many trackers to block as on similar sites. However, the blocky layout clearly is dumbed down for mobile and it makes it a challenge to enjoy the site. Since it is a science site why dumb it down? **EDIT** after doing more security scans there is malware IF it is allowed to connect to any variation of Corrosionstandards. However, I never saw it- but perhaps it is triggered by one of the trackers or ad servers that I have blocked. If anyone thinks that those of us who invest the time to block such things are wrong there is a textbook example.
