Great job jabronis - attached picture is what the site looks like on an old phone. All the buttons are broken and do nothing, except for the Modlog which somehow is still accessible. Tried different browsers on the phone, tried clearing all the cookies and cache, still doesn’t work.

EDIT: This came off a bit hot and aggro - it just sucks since pre-migration the site worked fine on my dinosaur phone, so I’m pretty frustrated. Makes me appreciate communist web-design (like marxists.org and redsails.org) even more.

Because that’s a bad faith framing that is overly hostile to the devs for the amount of work that’s already been put in. I want the devs to feel appreciated so they don’t just fucking quit. But apparently. We should just insult them when things don’t happen to work on devices no one could have planned for.

Also, because you might not know this, there is a wide gulph between “making the site accessible on old phones” and making the site work on a really out of date apple os.

Well apparently suggesting that it’s a tough issue to fix in this particular case and maybe the op shouldn’t be an asshole to the devs was too much for you because you went off about me hating the poor for that.

the devs know that i appreciate the work they’ve already done

Oh, well then, excuse me for not having you on my up to date list of people who get to pop off about certain aspects of the site because they’ve definitely thanked the devs enough.
