Are there any plans to make the forum cell phone friendly?
« on: October 02, 2026, 05:31:39 PM »
It's hard to type on this forum using a cell phone. It's really off putting .Any plans to model the way it's done on the education forum which is much easier?

I find it hard to do anything on a cell phone except what it's supposed to do which is to make and receive telephone calls. I don't understand the fascination with smart phones. I find mine to be a source of aggravation. I was perfectly happy with my flip phone. The only reason I changed is because Spectrum became available and I could save money by bundling, TV, internet, and mobile. I use the mobile mainly for phone calls. About the only other reason for having it is to receive verification codes when I want to access a secure website. Pretty much everything else I do, posting here, checking emails, buying on Amazon, etc. I find much easier and less aggravating doing it on my laptop. I might go back to a flip phone when my Spectrum contract expires.

I’m using my phone and it’s not that difficult but idk how to copy paste with this phone and for some reason having some error with Dans thread “Determining a Timestamp for Darnell. Otherwise everything’s working. I gotta figure out how to use feature where I can speak at my phone and it types out what I’m saying.

It does it automatically if you look at the education forum on a cell phone. It alters the layout to make the text as large as possible without losing functionality.

How about this new look for the Forum, it also adjusts to appear like an app for most Cellphones.
