TRF on mobile

malferink · 03-10-22, 15:54

Navigating TRF on mobile is nigh impossible and I only
Use it on PC normally. Is there any way to make it doable? Like an extension, app, whatever.
Anything that could help would be greatly appreciated as I'm away from my PC for a while

I’m having no issue with TRF on the Safari browser on iPhone.

I rarely use my computer to browse and post on TRF. I mostly use my phone.

What kind of phone are you using ?

I use TRF on my Google Pixel with no problems. Thanks to android ability to zoom with one hand using the forums is no real problem for me.

For sure, I love the phone zoom!
I think at this point I'm so used to using my phone for the forum using a PC would be no bueno. The sentences are stretched too far on a desktop or something.

You can set the forum theme to fixed for Desktop. It keeps the sentences in the center of the screen.

I’ve probably spoken about this before X number of years ago, but TRF is very usable on Safari on iPhone and I almost always post from my mobile. It’s nice to have my login details saved with Face ID so I never have to type my password either.

What are you having trouble with ? I don’t think there are any extensions for mobile browsers.

Sure you can zoom using your phone, but is it practical? naah

This is an uncropped (unless postimg cuts it, which it usually does) screenshot of what TRF looks like as zoomed out as it gets on my phone
Look at the formatting! Mm-m-mn!

Sometimes when I want to be less biased I zoom in and cut off everyone's names and avatars. Then sometimes I need to scroll over to see who said something so idiotic.

I love TRF so much, no matter how much I trashtalk when I get banned. It is the best TR place.
And no, I don't use darkmode

Yeah, my phone auto formats the forums as well. The only time I have to zoom is on large posts with lots of pictures or on the home page, but regular posts do auto format for mobile.
