IMdb.com still a nightmare of loading and navigation issues due to their thoughtless, stupid ad banners
A few years back IMDB did a redesign, and I complained along with a lot of others. I promised I'd stop using the site. The workaround was to use the mobile app, which I did. That said, I'm old-fashioned and prefer browsing on a computer sometimes. Call me crazy, but I like actually seeing a full page of a website when I am on it. As I've been reminded over the last few days, that is not possible with IMDB. Nothing's gotten better on the website version; it's only gotten worse. So can someone please tell me why a website is so selfishly designed? Not only does it load like molasses every few clicks due to loading of yet another pop-down ad, that pop-down ad TAKES UP HALF THE REAL ESTATE OF THE WEBPAGE! All content is blocked! Every few seconds! It's like adding a pinch more flour to brownie batter every few seconds as you get closer to putting the pan in the oven: you never get to bake the brownies because there are too many disruptions! That's what it's like trying to look at content on your once-awesome website. Impossible, and no longer worth it.
