  • Embarrassing De-evolution

    By Nyb vhuvguhguuhgugy
    This magazine is an embarrassing de evolution of what it used to be! It used to be intelligent, mature, broader, and deeper thinking. Now it appears to be written by hateful, juvenile in intellectuals with a couple years of higher education from one of these psycho institutions that have de-evolved in the United States! I just read an article about Graham Hancock that was so hateful and shortsighted. It’s embarrassing! Economist when you support and produce articles like this, you add to the hatred in the world. You add to the lack of creativity, imagination, insight, inquiry, and evolution of mankind! You have put a psychological and intellectual Bekah over your institution and you’re attempting to put it over your readers! Hire some adults to manage your business. Because anyone with any level of mature intelligence is walking away shaking their heads!

    Great content. NEEDS technical improvements. -add a page flip option so I don’t have to infinitely scroll when -sync read status between app on different devices -add easy way to get private RSS links so I can put them in my own podcast app -stop pushing the audio I listened to months ago by forcing the bottom play bar back EVERY time I open the app.
  • Great content, but kind of amazing the app can be this bad

    Amazing how many bugs there can be in an app from the journalistic giant The Economist. To take a glaring example, try the back and forward articles buttons. The back button takes you to the previous article rather than the start of the current article, which is weird enough. But completely frustrating is the fact that using the forward button after the back button will first skip to the next article, then the next next article, then to the next next next article. It is actually impossible to listen to the Economist on headphones and page back and forth on articles (e.g. after getting distracted by something) with these limitations. Ideally you’d do what all other magazine apps do and just skip back and forth by 30s at a time, but at the very least don’t make it completely broken.

    Reading the updated Economist used to be one of my favorite activities each week as world politics, economies and culture have always fascinated me. Unfortunately, the writing has gotten weary and predictable and headlines have shifted towards clickbait. Invest in better journalism and I’ll come back.

    I am experiencing technical problems with the audio feed of the weekly issue. It cuts regularly and each time I have to go back and restart it. Can’t understand why. Could you help ? The Economist is the world’s finest magazine, but sometimes I have the impression you stray from your historical classical liberal thinking and centrist position in politics. Please always keep in mind there is a huge difference between progress as expressed in your motto and progressivism, which denotes a partisan left wing mindset and unhelpful but more stance on a range of consequential issues, from identity politics to climate change to economic and social policy.

    Have been reading The Economist for about 40 years. While I miss some of the wit of the previous decades, the unwavering support of liberal (small “l”) politics and economic policies is needed more now than at any time since perhaps WWII. Fascinating obituaries and a great source of books to read, too. While I am a fan of print media, the app gives me access to all the great content and daily briefings wherever I happen to have some free time to enrich my day. Please keep up the good fight!

    The Economist provides at your fingertips real news. Instead of free clickbait, a jingoistic echo chamber, or Neo-Marxist philosophy you get material that will inform you, surprise you, inspire you, make you laugh, and sometimes even bring a tear to your eye. The Economist isn’t the news you want to hear, it’s the news you need. It has transformed the way in which I see the world, made me a better worker, manager, citizen, husband, and father. The world would be better off if everyone read it, and for this reason, I recommend you read it too.
