Ironically I find the first article easier to read when justified (side-by-side comparison at https://ibb.co/9tvZ75W). When not justified the uneven lines get my attention and I'm losing my reading rhythm. As the article lacks a published date, I do not know whether this is result of technology having advanced since. Nevertheless there're spaces that look bad around the images but maybe a better web design could help with this. Also there's the usual lack of any surveys that articles on design tend to have.
