It works fine in landscape orientation on an iPhone SE if you zoom out to 50%.
I prefer to view websites like this as if my phone was a desktop, and I tend to hate it when that desire is fought by aggressive attempts to reflow everything into a “mobile” format with no way around it. So I think it’s better than many modern websites as far as usability goes.
- Arn_Thor 3y agoI’m sorry but I’m just not going to switch off my orientation lock and turn my phone sideways just for a website to “work fine”. It’s 2024. I expect better
- jcpst 3y agolol! I only type that when something literally makes me laugh out loud. Thank you, this comment made my morning.
- jcpst 3y agoApologies if this is wasn’t a valuable comment. Earlier it didn’t occur to me that the comment about having to turn their phone sideways might not be sarcasm.
- marginalia_nu 3y agoThere's a lot of content you're just not going to be able to partake in then. Tables with more than 3 columns more or less just don't work in portrait mode.
- listenallyall 3y agoThen don't. Just don't visit the site. No harm no foul. Nobody owes you a web site catered to your preferences.
- Y_Y 3y agoI blame font sizes. I think everyone but me is wrong and that my phone in portrait mode should be able to show at least 100 characters. The comment im replying takes up about an inch of vertical space, and is spread over six lines, one of which is blank and one is a single word. This is larger than I find ideal but about the same as an average paperback novel. That said I need to twiddle a setting in Android developer options to get even this small. Maybe people want to loom at their phone without their glasses on? maybe less text seems "cleaner"? This is my hill and I'll gladly die on it.
