Image is too large, often useless for context and generally wasted space. Too much text per article means generally one screen page per article (consider just showing one line and having an expand button that shows the extra context). compare nytimes.com for example - you can see 9 stories on the front page even with two large images. No idea what the tick means

I'd aim for at least 4-6 articles showing in screen at once.

Hey Joshka! Thanks for checking it out and commenting. I like the one article per page format over a click -- easy to scroll along and see what I want without much interaction. I get why someone might want different though or prefer no images. V1 of the site was full black and white newspaper style with many columns -- closer to what you're saying.
