Toilet paper

What a liberal rag can’t wait for May 3 when it disappears

Sad about losing city paper

Love having a city paper!!! So sad they are closing.
We wanted to get a daily paper delivered at a decent rate when we moved here 8 years ago from York PA. Originally from Chicago. Weird delivery schedule so we did online. Very sad for the generation who grew up with a physical paper. Sign of the times 😢

Hope

One of the great newspapers in America. Hopefully a group of investors will respond. There cannot be a news outlet anywhere that covers local high school sports like the PG. One of the many reasons that PG needs investors. Mr. Nutting are you interested in helping save the PG?

PG is great

This is a great newspaper I have read since childhood. Sportswriters are terrific. I’m saddened that they will be shutting down in May. This was one way to stay in touch with the city you love when you live far away. Thank you for the years of service to the Burgh and for all the memories I have thanks to your coverage.

I will truly miss thePG

I’ll miss this little newspaper when it’s gone …

I’m going to miss it … the Trib is no substitute for

Sad it’s being shut down

Sad the trust fund babies who own the gazette who have done nothing but benefited from Their ancestors hard work can’t spare a few bucks to keep the paper running. God forbid being worth less than $100 million a year would destroy their lives. Incredibly selfish babies who think of no one but themselves.

Worst app going

Constantly failing login, which it demands. It’s a Mickey-mouse operation the reflects the incompetence of the provider

Can’t get content

I love the PG and the app for years ran flawlessly. But now I can’t log in and just get error message about the content not downloadable, check internet connection. Please fix and give me my beloved PG back. Plus I am paying for an online subscription I can’t really use.

Content no longer visible

All of a sudden and can’t view any content on my iPad Pro 11” M4. Keep getting the message, “No content available for this page” I also am not able to get up-to-date content on my iPhone 16 Pro Max. I don’t know what’s going on, but I can’t get any support either. Click the link on the App Store site for support and I get an Error 404 page on PG’s website. Terrible experience.

No way to read comments

I haven’t discovered a way to read the comments on articles on the app, nor to post comments.

Post gazette online is wonderful!

I am impressed by the local coverage at the PG and look forward to great coverage; keep it up!

No dark mode

How can you not implement dark mode? This is just one of many features lacking. I pay for a subscription for the content - it’s a shame there isn’t a better app to read it with.

Notifications are pointless

Clicking on notifications of breaking news from the app do not take me to the app. They take me to the website where I have to login to read the news. This is pointless. What’s the point of having an app send me notifications if it doesn’t take me to the app? Every other newspaper I subscribe to has figured this out, but not the Post Gazette. This is frustrating and it’s easier to go to another news source.

Sports

I went to grad school at Pitt and worked in Pittsburgh for a year. Pittsburgh is my favorite city. Being a fan of the Steelers, Pitt, Penguins and Pirates it’s the best way for me to follow Pittsburgh sports.
I live in Harrisburg.
