Teletext is great. It's highly curated and you can read all the pages in the morning in a few minutes. It's part of my coffee and morning routine.

Also mostly ad free, free of clickbait, concise, and really really fast. It's RSS before RSS.
Yeah, mostly... it depended on the station. Commercial stations in the Netherlands, to the extent they even bothered with Teletext, did at times do ads.
Yeah, same here in Spain. Just the same short news in any channel, neither left/right opinions from the journalists nor lengthy and unneeded details; next to it, some services mimicking newspaper sections.
