I use it daily and it's decent. It's easy enough to just filter out all of the low-quality news sources (either block those channels or "suggest less"). I use it for sources I want to occasionally read articles from but wouldn't subscribe to: WSJ, New Yorker, Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, Scientific American, or sources I do subscribe to but it's convenient to have them in one place (Atlantic, Wired, my local paper) instead of 5 different apps.

I mostly ignore the "For You" and go straight to browsing the sources I like, "saving" articles to read later, etc.

Never noticed there were lots of ads; I guess I'm used to just scrolling on by them automatically.
