Having it your way is one of the benefits of being an Ars Pro subscriber. You get all of the great content you come to Ars for every day, but you get to choose how you parse it. Some readers want the classic blog-style homepage. Others want as many headlines as possible packed onto one screen. Some want a wider text column; others would happily never see another story about a topic they don’t follow.
We’ve got you covered.
Both Grid and List views are available for all readers, but subscribing to Ars unlocks two additional layout options. Our old-school Classic view reprises the original site layout from 1998, the year the Ars Orbiting HQ launched.
Turn the clock back with Classic View.

But if you really, really love information density (or like to read Hacker News style), you’ll love the Neutron Star layout, the ultimate in minimalism. No pictures, just words. And with keyboard navigation, you never need to reach for your mouse.

An Ars Pro subscription lets you tweak the site to optimize the way you read. Choose your favorite view, filter your favorite topics, adjust the reading layout, and make Ars feel less like a website designed for everyone and more like one designed for you.
