Thanks for the detailed info, foodie88.
I'm with you on the number of cluttered, bloated, and wretched media websites that are horrible user experiences.
Again, I prefer simply-designed article pages.

For a homepage, I prefer single column streams of content or "rivers." I only need an excerpt of each post.
Something like this TT page which is accessing and displaying info from the Blade's local news RSS feed.
Toledo Blade local news feed - (It's not accounting for the extended ASCII chars though.)
Here is the RSS feed for that page. It's local news. It does not contain columns nor op-eds.

On a desktop/laptop computer and on my phone, I open stories in separate browser tabs.
Here are the titles of the stories that currently exist in the Blade's local news RSS feed.
