After the latest upgrade, the readers comments feature no longer works. UPDATED: The comments worked for a while but starting 2026 January, the comments section further *removed* completely without notifications. One can no longer leaves comments regarding the reports or news.

Auto scroll screen is the worst. I have not even finished the reading, It jumps and scrolls to other news. Not sure who can finish all news subjects in a few seconds.
