    On PC I paste images in the textbox but on mobile, specifically on Android, you can't copy images in the clipboard, so how to post images? Must tell the users to host images in a 3rd party site like imgur and add it manually via markdown?

    Edit: sorry just found it, the upload button is the last button of the toolbar

    I was able to upload images by pressing that button

    User Modes

    Is design thinking for user group behaviour or market segment patterns, inspired by mobile.

    First there is the Lurk metric concept - https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17643/the-lurk-metric

    This then leads me to the User Mode concept and approach to tailoring the NodeBB UX

    It struck me, post composer reconfigured fun exchange here that it is probably mostly true, that more users consume on mobile than they they ever contribute-create content, and by a much larger factor.

    Then it stands to reason, that the NodeBB mobile UX should actually endeavour to offer first the best READ Mode out there, matching user behaviour with the most fitting UX mode, serving the trend-pattern-behaviour correctly.

    This means thinking of the mobile experience as a Read Mode in the first, instead of trying to replicate Desktop in the hand functionality.

    A user mode where no creation tools are required, a stripped and stepped back mobile UX and UI allows more content to be seen and consumed with less clutter and distraction. This may engender an increase in stickiness and longer read times, let's be optimistic!

    What does that mean in NodeBB Harmony terms.

    READ MODE looks like:

    Top menu BAR is gone. Login to post is on the bottom bar.

    All a READ Mode user really needs is access to read content and ability to navigate. No reply, no watching, no sorting, etc. etc.

    READ mode in terms of UI needs only

    Home Button Login / To post

    "Nothing else! Not even timeline. No timeline? No Navigator?! Are you mad Omega?"

    Yes.

    This then leads me to mention another older concept, that I didn't articulate very well some years back to the devs, but in this context make IMHO more profound sense.

    READ Next Post Mode

    Pagination is on a post by post basis. Scrolling is reduced to a minimum (only posts longer than viewport would require scrolling to read more)

    A post is treated like next-page on mobile, so instead of scrolling you simply next post to read, well the next post!

    Since then, it just so happens to have been developed circuitously, for another element, being the timeline navigator and so this capability is located in the timeline navigator (on mobile at least), for searching on a post by post basis.

    If we elevate that style with some modifications of next-post reading as a default in READ Mode, then we might solve things like scrolling-fatigue or doom-scrolling-fatigue, or at least can offer either scroll or next-post as a UXUI in the best READ mode on the market! 😉

    In the hierarchy of Modes, I'm only thinking of two right now, who knows, but think of a Mode equalling an aggregate user behaviour, there could be more, maybe one more.

    READ Mode (new, different, engaging) USER Mode (existing experience and UI)

    In conclusion, throwing all the USER mode functions at people who only want to exist in a READ Mode, may solve a bounce for-whatever-reason problem and help to increase engagement.

    So stepping things right back and looking at the MVP for a READ Mode, as a universal default for all unlogged in users, may solve unrealised issues, as written, improve engagement, maybe countering general "sign-up" fatigue or reticence and so on.

    @julian ...again that's why I mentioned the modal menu to handle the required demands and complexity of the composing needs on the small screen, it can be many things, including the helper where nice UI things happen.

    Just like we have auto suggest working on mobile for tags, can we please enable auto suggest for following?

    when searching for topics on mobile using global search. when writing a topic title when choosing a category for a topic

    all these autosuggest work on desktop view but not in mobile view.

    We can do it if the window isn't too slim, and if I'm in Landscape mode it also lets me hit the red circle, so why not enable it for mobile?

    2 years ago, some people think NodeBB is unnecessary.https://www.reddit.com/r/startups/comments/1gvg7d/show_rstartups_we_were_sick_of_how_stagnant_forum/
    But now, NodeBB has proved itself.

    Tried on chrome, this is the result

    The forum continues to work as normal, but ad doesn't appear

    EDIT:

    is causing some server side or client side rendering / blocking?

    More importantly, I'm not getting an issue like this. The only issue is that the sidebar is empty, for me

    Fun thing about Apple Safari on iOS the bars that are not removable takes like 100px of the total height resulting in a 400px height canvas for your website and add the keyboard over this to have some fun.

    Some kind of paging function would also be good for mobile devices where RAM is frequently at a high premium.

    NodeBB causes not-infrequent browser crashes on my iPad2 on longer threads. When I click a link that takes me to the 60th post in a thread or something, there is a long delay as the slower browser begins by loading the op oldest posts in batches. It would be good if there were a way to make it skip doing that and take me directly to the unread posts (without switching the full application to paged mode).

    Perhaps on mobile devices you could add a secondary navigation bar with the paging functions (arrows, "displaying X-Y of Z", etc).

    Hmm, theres a few ways you could solve this issue. One way I solved this was to change code { white-space: nowrap; } to
    code { white-space: pre-wrap; } which is the more quicker way.

    Other ways, I can think of off the top of my head is adding an overflow-x: auto to .post-content.
