- makecheck 11y agoThen they should have had a big fat "begin playing game" button for the browser, and turned it off the rest of the time. The user should still be in control.
- err4nt 11y agoYou can easily write a bookmarklet which you can tap that would replace any viewport meta tag with a viewport tag that allowed zooming, but as has been mentioned in other thread where this topic comes up - almost invariably the mobile browser software _already has_ a convenient user override built in. Find it and toggle it.
- username223 11y agoI understand "because games" (which are already a horrible abuse of what was initially intended as a way to display hyper-text), but far too often I wander onto some news site or blog that thinks it knows what size text I find most comfortable to read. Honestly, if you're trying to present text in the best way possible, make it easy for readers to choose both font size and column width. This lets readers adjust to suit their visual acuity and reading distance. A lot of sites seem to be designed to prevent both.
