Still Enjoy The D&C

I moved from Fairport to Charleston, SC five years ago and still subscribe. The Post & Courier newspaper in CHS is terrible, just repeats of the televised news.

Still enjoying The D&C

Very convenient and easy to navigate the page. Easy to search past articles too. Gotta LUV The D&C…Never miss a days edition 👍

Thank you to the D&C!

I’m grateful for the D&C’s coverage of local and general news and their in-depth articles on the climate, etc. Imaging losing this news source makes me even more grateful that Rochester still has a local newspaper. I do however miss arts coverage!

Newspaper freezes up

Frequently while reading newspaper using the app, it freezes and have to come back to it later, reopen the app and continue reading. Very annoying. Requested fix from publisher many times with no response.

Garbage

Constantly have to re-enter info to confirm I am a paid subscriber. Today I am unable to get the e-edition which is the only user friendly option

Great digital newspaper

Great newspaper

Good paper

Love that digital paper is set up exactly way print is.

Rochester D&C

Although the newspaper has “day late” news, I enjoy reading about the details and facts that are often left out of newscasts. Room for improvement is with titles for the news pieces, as they are often VERY misleading and the placement of said facts: they are at the end of the article after a very opinionated bunch of “coulds, mights…and according to…(who is rarely reputable or has done a survey of more than 300 people).

Totally annoying

I used the “Digital Print” app for years. Lately it was freezing up forcing reboot of my ipad. In frustration I deleted the app to do a reinstall. Can’t even find the digital print app on the App Store now. Got this and hate it. Thanks D&C.

Great Read

The D&C has always a great paper and a great read. Great to see that it continues to be so

DC Review

Do not like the political favoritism that this paper demonstrates.

Love it!

Very nice

Complaint

I hate the new version of the D&C. I no longer get the new in full screen. Why did you change the format!?

Garbage

D&C app is junk. Clunky. Slow. Disappointed with having subscribed.

Overkill

Why not change your name from Democrats and Chronicle to NFL ONLY. We are being smothered with your repetitive “news” on football.

Hit & miss

The online version for the iPad has had multiple problems lately. E.g.: several days I could not open the USA Today section. Had to go from iPad to phone to make it work. Not fun. 12/6/25 the D&C opened at the comics page. No prior sections. ???

D&C Newspaper and app is great to have

It really is terrific to have a local paper still available in today’s world. It may not be the place you go for breaking news - there are many places to go for that - but it is great to read more in-depth stories and local news that is not time sensitive. Like openings and closings of stores and restaurants as well as investigative journalism in the local area. Plus it includes all the USA Today national news.
The app also works great in providing an e-edition of the paper that looks and behaves like the printed edition, but on your tablet.

Terrible Electronics

Continued problems with the E-Edition D&C

Headlines and articles are old and repeat

Why do so many of the same article show up in the same feed and sometimes right next to each other? Not enough news? What a joke. Not sure why I pay for it.
