@exodo @Kosiak let us know how it looks now, we are testing some custom css here to disable font scaling done by the browsers. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13430897/how-to-override-font-boosting-in-mobile-chrome. I've applied the below custom css and it fixes the issue I am having on android chrome. Without the max-height rule android chrome just scales text for me.

body * {
    max-height:1000000px;
    text-size-adjust: none;
    -webkit-text-size-adjust: none;
    -moz-text-size-adjust: none;
}

You can always hire me as betatester

Really, while nodebb desktop has been always an incredible experience, nowadays every web should go mobile first and that involves android and ios perfect testing. Nodebb been lacking ios perfect integration since his launch.
I encourage you to reinforce these aspects with harmony

julian

@exodo you're right, of course. Part of that is because we both use Android phones.

Having additional eyes would certainly be helpful. Let's chat about maybe a couple dedicated bugfix weeks for iOS not sure if I will regret them.

Does it count for extra points if Baris has extra incentive to optimize NodeBB for speed because he uses a super slow Nokia 7.1?

NodeBB now don't have realtime update the new topic? Count in sidebar work, but to view the new topic, need refresh page.

julian

@brazzerstop It's been like that for a long time now. We don't dynamically update the topics list because it pushes everything downwards, and is unexpected behaviour for the end user.

It sure does. I was very very excited when they came back. I used a Nokia 6.1 for quite awhile, until it got too slow
