ACS Pub. Changed their Website
 |
Not sure why, but as of checking today, July 24th, 2026, ACS Publications changed their website. And it’s quite annoying and worse in some ways by a large margin, at least to me compared to the possible benefits as a reader. At least for mobile.
So for places like JACS, which has a wide array of chemistry, it takes longer for you to spot something you may be interested in. 2) They removed the pageviews. As an author…why? At least I can’t find it via mobile version. I fully enjoy seeing the page views going up when I recently publish something. 3) Something about the font and spacing is disorienting. For the first time, I actually rather read the PDF than the HTML. 4) The mobile menu is too large, it can sometimes cover up to 1/4th of the page, making it difficult to read. 1/6 if Split View option doesn’t show up. There are good changes though.
Overall, I feel as if they make some easy changes, then the site works well. But if they don’t, as a reader, I just feel annoyed. Am I alone in this? What do others think? I may be in the minority. submitted by /u/OwnerJFB |
