Originally posted by Xkeeper The "mobile version" was mostly a quick hack years ago for personal use, just set up so that others might get to use it too (though it has limited support). It just switches the thread layout to "Compact Vertical" (or whatever it was), swaps out the header with a smaller one, and that's... really about it. There are no other checks for it in the code.
I'm always surprised whenever someone runs into it.
I noticed that all the threads look different when browsing here on my PSP. I just thought that my PSP was taking for ever to load, until I looked at my options
Turns out the text is big enough when I hold the phone sideways. In case anyone is wondering, I'm using an HTC Evo 4G.

any of my college professors make laptops against their classroom policy, probably because of how easy it is to get distracted with the whole internet at your fingertips. So I'm used to taking notes on paper. But it's frustrating... sometimes I think my professors forget that we're tuition-paying adults, not high school students. Just let me use my laptop!
Funny; I remember classes where people would be browsing the net but would shut it down as soon as the professor came in. Gee... I think that's called being responsible, no?
...then again, I'm the one who's been distracted by Reddit flash games at work.

I'm curious as to what web browser you're using. I can never browse it very well on mine.
Well, it's a DSi, so it has that integrated Opera browser. I've tried DSOrganize, but bleh.
ClIRC is nice to have, though!
I assume the DSi browser is much improved over the original DS Internet Browser (which was also Opera-based)... I haven't used my copy in awhile, but I seem to recall it did not like message boards very much.

I've tried using Jul on my Blackberry, too slow for my tastes though. That and I don't have data on my plan, so the only place I'm using it is somewhere with a computer nearby anyways, so hardly practical.

Huh... I'm surprised that was an issue.
How does the Saturn browser work, anyway? I mean, I imagine any browser from the late '90s on late '90s hardware is going to be crap on modern sites, but for its time was it any good?

It used a 28.8k modem in a time when 56k had just become available, choked on javascript made about a year after it was made, and new version creation was discontinued alongside the Saturn.
Also it can't parse anything but the oldest IRCds for getting on IRC-related purposes.
So it's kind of a clunky piece of junk. It just -barely- works.
Wonder how Jul would work on a Dreamcast... I'm guessing slightly above the Saturn but then again it's in that same time period. REALLY questionable quality.

It's a newer version of the Planetweb browser. Probably crummy but workable, as most web standards used by Jul became supported by Planetweb in the Dreamcast iteration.

I wasn't aware the Dreamcast had a web browser.
Speaking of unusual browsers, graphical Links.
